Different Directory Structure?
Authored by: BananaFish on Jan 24, '03 12:37:48AM
You may not have a .tcshrc file if you don't use TCSH. If memory serves, TCSH was the default shell under OS X 10.1 and before. BASH (Bourne Again SHell) was added under 10.2 and it may be the default shell now -- I just don't recall.

You'll know which shell you're using by typing echo $SHELL at the command line. When I run this command it returns /bin/bash because I use BASH instead of TCSH.

Different shells use different files for initialization. BASH uses ~/.profile and/or ~/.bashrc

Different Directory Structure?
Authored by: eckbert on Jan 24, '03 11:02:45AM

I use tcsh and have the same problems.
Since 10.2 APPLE changed some things. For my aliases i now have a file in ~/Library/init/tcsh/aliases.mine e.g.
So far so good but putting the code in a file tcsh.mine did not do any good.
Tell me if anyone had success on this
