Hi John,

Andy answered your other question, maybe I can help with this.

You could try a slightly different solution, by putting the code you
want in .bashrc instead - .bash_profile is only read by login shells,
.bashrc is read by every shell.

Otherwise if you're using gnome-terminal, on the 'Title and Command'
tab of the Profile settings, there's a box to tick to make it start a
login shell.

HTH
Hwyl,
Neil.
