Remove the alias from .xsession and put it in ~/.bashrc Make sure your ~/bash_profile file loads the .bashrc file: if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then source ~/.bashrc fi Usually this is already in there so you just need to uncomment this. Then from X load an xterm or eterm and the alias should be available Regards, Benedict Verheyen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
