Having set my shell to either sh or bash, I can't seem to get .shrc to take. If I have a .shrc that looks like: PROMPT_DIRTRIM=3; export PROMPT_DIRTRIM PS1=\\w$ ; export PS1 PS1 is not defined when I log in, and the prompt is set to the default instead. If I do ./.shrc nothing seems to change; although executing the above commands from the shell itself works. What am I missing?
