Previous versions have a '.bashrc' file. This version doesn't. I would like to put some aliases or functions in .bashrc. I started a '.bash_aliases' file and it works . But where did the '.bashrc' file go to?</p>enThu, 08 Sep 2011 03:31:14 -0400Answer by Jazzhttp://linuxexchange.org/questions/2677/where-is-bashrc-in-linux-mint-11-solved/2683<p>Just for further visitors: Not all distributions provide a .bashrc by default. Nevertheless, I am not aware of any distribution that ignores an existing .bashrc. Therefore, simply create it if it doesn't exist.</p> <pre><code>touch ~/.bashrc </code></pre>JazzThu, 08 Sep 2011 03:31:14 -0400http://linuxexchange.org/questions/2677/where-is-bashrc-in-linux-mint-11-solved/2683Comment by kaykav on Alan Rochester's answerhttp://linuxexchange.org/questions/2677/where-is-bashrc-in-linux-mint-11-solved#2680<p>Evidently .bashrc doesn't exist in mint 11,so I created the file ($ touch .bashrc).
