This is a spin-off of the "Netscape Help" thread...
I figured out that if you want Bourne Shell to have a permanent alias that you make it in the .bashrc file. Suppose I wanted to make an alias that ALL of the shells interpret. Is there a certain file that I would place it in?
I tried the man page, but all I got was a mile long manual that pertained to bash in its entirety. I found the alias section, but it doesn't explain how to go about it for the other shells.
