ok, here's the contents of my bashrc. It's a little long. The part where it references the java.sh, or actually ./profile.d/*.sh is at the bottom:

Code:
# /etc/bashrc

# System wide functions and aliases
# Environment stuff goes in /etc/profile

# By default, we want this to get set.
# Even for non-interactive, non-login shells.
if [ $UID -gt 99 ] && [ "`id -gn`" = "`id -un`" ]; then
        umask 002
else
        umask 022
fi

# are we an interactive shell?
if [ "$PS1" ]; then
    case $TERM in
        xterm*)
                if [ -e /etc/sysconfig/bash-prompt-xterm ]; then
                        PROMPT_COMMAND=/etc/sysconfig/bash-prompt-xterm
                else
                PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;${USER}@${HOSTNAME%%.*}:${PWD/#$HOME/~}"; echo -ne "\007"'
                fi
                ;;
        screen)
                if [ -e /etc/sysconfig/bash-prompt-screen ]; then
                        PROMPT_COMMAND=/etc/sysconfig/bash-prompt-screen
                else
                PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033_${USER}@${HOSTNAME%%.*}:${PWD/#$HOME/~}"; echo -ne "\033\\"'
                fi
                ;;
        *)
                [ -e /etc/sysconfig/bash-prompt-default ] && PROMPT_COMMAND=/etc/sysconfig/bash-prompt-default
            ;;

    esac
    # Turn on checkwinsize
    shopt -s checkwinsize
    [ "$PS1" = "\\s-\\v\\\$ " ] && PS1="[\u@\h \W]\\$ "
fi

if ! shopt -q login_shell ; then # We're not a login shell
        # Need to redefine pathmunge, it get's undefined at the end of /etc/profile
    pathmunge () {
                if ! echo $PATH | /bin/egrep -q "(^|:)$1($|:)" ; then
                        if [ "$2" = "after" ] ; then
                                PATH=$PATH:$1
                        else
                                PATH=$1:$PATH
                        fi
                fi
        }

        for i in /etc/profile.d/*.sh; do

LEARN ABOUT DEBIAN

simplyhtml

SIMPLYHTML(1)						      General Commands Manual						     SIMPLYHTML(1)

NAME

       simplyhtml -- A Java editor based on HTML and CSS.

SYNOPSIS

       simplyhtml [no_options]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the simplyhtml command.

       This  manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.  Instead, it has online
       documentation (see Help menu in SimplyHTML).

   Project Description
       With project SimplyHTML an application is built for working with text documents. Text documents are stored in HTML and CSS format, but  the
       application is meant as a word processor rather than a code editor or web site builder.

   Open to the maximum
       SimplyHTML  is  built  with  the aim to document as much of its functionality and usage as possible. The application is written in Java and
       distributed with full source codes.

       By using Java, HTML, CSS and PDF all parts of the project are 100% platform independent and can be used on almost any machine.

   Extensive documentation
       Source codes are commented in Javadoc format and additional inline comments. The sources are created with good legibility and structure	in
       mind.

       In  addition,  an  extensive  tutorial  is delivered covering both usage of the application and its internals. The tutorial is available in
       JavaHelp format and can be used as online help out of SimplyHTML. Or it can be read with a plain web browser. A PDF version of the tutorial
       is avalable too.

   Why another HTML editor?
       SimplyHTML is not an HTML editor in first place. It is a text processing application being based on HTML and CSS files.

       Although it has a simple HTML editor built in as well, the application focuses on text processing rather than web page creation.

       SimplyHTML  tries  to  distinguish  from  comparable  applications by combining simplicity, ease of use and transparency for both users and
       developers.

OPTIONS

       This program does not have any option. Just start it!

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       DEBUG	 If  this environment variable is set, SimplyHTML gives more information on how it finds its different elements, as well  as  some
		 other information.

       JAVACMD	 Default value for the java virtual machine (the java command).

       JAVA_BINDIR
		 If $JAVACMD is not set, the java virtual machine is searched under $JAVA_BINDIR/java.

       JAVA_HOME If $JAVACMD and $JAVA_BINDIR are not set, the java virtual machine is searched under $JAVA_HOME/bin/java.

       PATH	 If all $JAVA... environment variables fail, the java virtual machine command (java) is searched in the $PATH (with which).

       CLASSPATH	ADD_JARS
		 The  $CLASSPATH  variable also lets one specify additional jars, which is good, if you want to add a new Look&Feel jar (the motif
		 one is so ugly...). Alternatively, the content of $ADD_JARS will be prepended to $CLASSPATH.

FILES

       /usr/bin/java
		 If all searches through environment variables fail, the java virtual machine is expected to be /usr/bin/java; if not,	simplyhtml
		 exits with an error.
