A more general question might be: what files (.profile, .login, whatever) and in what order are loaded every I login via a shell and how are these settings propagated up through Gnome desktop? Thanks a lot in advance. -- Kiffin Rex Gish Gouda, The Netherlands --Boundary_(ID_aBPfj9kDByu61M88gopKUg)--
