Greetings. I am running RH 7.0. In my /etc/bashrc file I have alias ls='ls -Al --color' This gives me a long directory listing in color. It works as long as I am not in Gnome. If I start Gnome and open a terminal, an ls gives me the usual short directory listing. I have tried adding the alias to the user profile as well but this has no effect. Thanks for your help.
