If you are executing psql while masquarding at the postgres user its the postgres user's ~/.psqlrc file that will be looked for. Typically one doesn't execute psql as the postgres user. They configure the system so that they can execute psql as a regular user. You should probably do that and then everything should work like you are thinking. David J.
