Title: most canonical place to put your environment variable customizations
Post by: kevinfish on June 22, 2016, 05:30:01 PM

Hi,

Can someone please tell me where I should put my customizations?

For example, if I want to start emacs as a server or alter my path?

Should I do it in .bashrc?   .profile?  Somewhere else?

I'd like these to be available to programs that don't necessarily run from the shell.

TIA,
-Kevin

my guess is either your shell .rc file for user's settings or /opt/bootlocal.sh for system services.

if you use bash as your default shell, probably.
