Here's my .profile: # $FreeBSD: src/etc/root/dot.profile,v 1.20 1999/08/27 23:24:09 peter = Exp $ # PATH=3D/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/= X11R6/bin : export PATH HOME=3D/root export HOME TERM=3D${TERM:-cons25} export TERM PAGER=3Dmore export PAGER PS1=3D"\w#" alias 'lu =3D /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb' alias 'seti =3D cat /var/db/setiathome/state.sah | grep prog' alias 'dir =3D ls -Fl' ~ Questions: 1) My aliases don't work. Why? 2) When I make a change, let's say to the aliases, I don't know of any = other way for it to take immediate affect unless I log out and log back = in again. Is there a command approach to this? 3) Is there a good tutorial about environment settings and other issues = such as the ones I'm struggling with?
