~/.bashrc file
# ~/.bashrc: executed by bash(1) for non-login shells.
see /usr/share/doc/bash/examples/startup-files (in the package bash-doc)
for examples
If not running interactively, don't do anything
case $- in *i*) ;; *) return;; esac
don't put duplicate lines or lines starting with space in the history.
See bash(1) for more options
HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth
append to the history file, don't overwrite it
shopt -s histappend
for setting history length see HISTSIZE and HISTFILESIZE in bash(1)
HISTSIZE=5000 HISTFILESIZE=9000
check the window size after each command and, if necessary,
update the values of LINES and COLUMNS.
shopt -s checkwinsize
If set, the pattern "**" used in a pathname expansion context will
match all files and zero or more directories and subdirectories.
#shopt -s globstar
make less more friendly for non-text input files, see lesspipe(1)
[ -x /usr/bin/lesspipe ] && eval "$(SHELL=/bin/sh lesspipe)"
set variable identifying the chroot you work in (used in the prompt below)
if [ -z "${debian_chroot:-}" ] && [ -r /etc/debian_chroot ]; then debian_chroot=$(cat /etc/debian_chroot) fi
set a fancy prompt (non-color, unless we know we "want" color)
case "$TERM" in xterm-color) color_prompt=yes;; esac
uncomment for a colored prompt, if the terminal has the capability; turned
off by default to not distract the user: the focus in a terminal window
should be on the output of commands, not on the prompt
#force_color_prompt=yes
if [ -n "$force_color_prompt" ]; then if [ -x /usr/bin/tput ] && tput setaf 1 >&/dev/null; then # We have color support; assume it's compliant with Ecma-48 # (ISO/IEC-6429). (Lack of such support is extremely rare, and such # a case would tend to support setf rather than setaf.) color_prompt=yes else color_prompt= fi fi
if [ "$color_prompt" = yes ]; then PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\[\033[01;32m\]\u@\h\[\033[00m\]:\[\033[01;34m\]\w\[\033[00m\]\$ ' else PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\u@\h:\w\$ ' fi unset color_prompt force_color_prompt
If this is an xterm set the title to user@host:dir
case "$TERM" in xterm*|rxvt*) PS1="\[\e]0;${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\u@\h: \w\a\]$PS1" ;; *) ;; esac
Alias definitions.
You may want to put all your additions into a separate file like
~/.bash_aliases, instead of adding them here directly.
See /usr/share/doc/bash-doc/examples in the bash-doc package.
if [ -f ~/.bash_aliases ]; then . ~/.bash_aliases fi
enable programmable completion features (you don't need to enable
this, if it's already enabled in /etc/bash.bashrc and /etc/profile
sources /etc/bash.bashrc).
if ! shopt -oq posix; then if [ -f /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion ]; then . /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion elif [ -f /etc/bash_completion ]; then . /etc/bash_completion fi fi
