Under Debian, you can also tweak /etc/profile and /etc/bashrc to make
global changes for all users (you must be root to do this)
# /etc/profile: system-wide .profile file for the Bourne shell (sh(1))
# and Bourne compatible shells (bash(1), ksh(1), ash(1), ...).

You can also find good info on bash in the bash-prompt how-to and
bash-programming how-to at http://linuxdocs.org (and other mirrors)
There is a difference between 'login shells' and non-interactive shell
environments, which may or may not be an issue ... non-interactive
environments are passed to: bash invocations from scripts and x-term
type shells launched on your desktop once you are logged in.
When you are playing with these files, the command 'source' as in:
source ~/.bashrc
is handy ... causes the file to be read and run just as if you had logged
out and back in ...
