Let’s look at the so-called hidden files in your own home directory – those whose names begin with a period (.). These are user-specific configuration files that you can change to meet your own needs and preferences. Let’s look at the .bashrc file, which is the configuration file in which individual users can set their own bash configuration such as aliases, functions, and environment variables that are unique to them.

Experiment 13-2

Perform this Experiment as the student user.

The .bashrc file is short so we can view it with cat. Let’s be sure we are in the home directory for the student user and then display the file.

[student@testvm1 ~]$ cd ; cat .bashrc

# .bashrc
