Appendix K. A Sample .bashrc File

The ~/.bashrc file determines the behavior of interactive shells. A good look at this file can lead to a better understanding of Bash.

Emmanuel Rouat contributed the following very elaborate .bashrc file, written for a Linux system. He welcomes reader feedback on it.

Study the file carefully, and feel free to reuse code snippets and functions from it in your own .bashrc file or even in your scripts.

Example K-1. Sample .bashrc file

#=============================================================
#
# PERSONAL $HOME/.bashrc FILE for bash-3.0 (or later)
# By Emmanuel Rouat <no-email>
#
# Last modified: Sun Nov 30 16:27:45 CET 2008
# This file is read (normally) by interactive shells only.
# Here is the place to define your aliases, functions and
# other interactive features like your prompt.
#
# The majority of the code here assumes you are on a GNU 
# system (most likely a Linux box) and is based on code found
# on Usenet or internet. See for instance:
#
# http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/index.html
# http://www.caliban.org/bash/
# http://www.shelldorado.com/scripts/categories.html
# http://www.dotfiles.org/
#
# This bashrc file is a bit overcrowded -- remember it is just
# just an example. Tailor it to your needs.
