Hi,

This is reference to problem 1 of chapter 5 "Customize Your Account". I created a file .newshell in my current directory. But what I am not able to understand is "you can load this in bash". Please help me.

Thanks.

Exercise 1 of this section tells how you can load a file. The short answer is you can use either . <file name> or source <file name>.

Thanks,

Anup

Hi,

Thanks a lot. I used ". .newshell" and it worked perfectly.

Thanks again.
