I did not find such a file in my home directory:
[AireyDC:~] dairey% ls -a
. .flexlmrc .tcsh_history
.. .fonts.cache-1 .texlive2007
.B3 .gimp-2.2 .thumbnails
.CFUserTextEncoding .gnome2 .webex
.CLC_tmp_lazy1 .inkscape .xdvirc
.DS_Store .inkscape-etc CLC_Data
.MCXLC .jalview_properties Desktop
.RData .java Documents
.Rhistory .jin Downloads
.Trash .jpi_cache Library
.Xauthority .lesshst Movies
.bash_history .nsmbrc Music
.config .parallels_settings Pictures
.crash_reportrc .recently-used Public
.cups .rnd Sites
.cytoscape .ssh gsea_home
[AireyDC:~] dairey%
The only profile file I could find was in /etc/, name "profile", with
the following contents:
# System-wide .profile for sh(1)
PATH="/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin"
export PATH
if [ "${BASH-no}" != "no" ]; then
[ -r /etc/bashrc ] && . /etc/bashrc
fi
I think my shell is tcsh, and I don't remember choosing it over bash.
It says tcsh in the window name, and preferences are set to default in
Terminal preferences.
