Location of configuration files

[Joonas Saarinen]

Hi,

By default Bash uses these files in my home directory:
.bashrc
.bash_logout
.bash_history
.profile

However, wouldn't it be more streamlined to place these files under 
directory '~/.config/bash'?

My home directory would not get so cluttered and, cleaning all 
Bash-related files could be easily done with the command 'rm -rf 
~/.config/bash'.
