Directory. :-)

But that suggests you aren't using bash, but csh? From "man csh",
section FILES:
~/.login Read by login shells after ~/.tcshrc or ~/.history.
The shell may be compiled to read ~/.login before
instead of after ~/.tcshrc and ~/.history; see the ver-
sion shell variable.
Note that .login is in csh syntax, not (ba)sh syntax. In case
you want to use sh syntax for a login-time startup script, just
call it from ~/.login via something like "/bin/sh ~/.sh.login"
or "/usr/local/bin/bash ~/.bash.login" (if you require bash-isms
which sh does not support).
