How can I customize my login script?
Hi,
I am realatively new to UNIX (I started 1 week ago), and I need some help on an assignment. I am trying to find the file that will allow me to modify my login. I did some research, and most of my sources tell me to modify the ~/.cshrc and ~/.login files. The problem is that I cannot find any of those 2 files. I need to modify my login script in such ways that I can customize my prompt, launch my internet browser, etc. I am *not* asking you to do my assignment. I only need someone to tell me how to start and point me in the right direction, please. |

Have a look in your home directory as follows... 1. determine your home directory Code:
pwd echo $HOME echo ~ and see if they all match. 2. A file that begins with . is normally invisible, do the following Code:
ls -ld ./.* if you have a .profile or similar it should show up, use cat (or more or less) to show it's contents. |
