<h3>Login shell</h3>
|
|
<p>As a "login shell", Bash reads and sets (executes) the user's profile
|
|
from /etc/profile and one of ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, or ~/.profile
|
|
(in that order, using the first one that's readable!).</p>
|
|
<p>When a login shell exits, Bash reads and executes commands from the file
|
|
~/.bash_logout, if it exists.</p>
|
|
<p>Why an extra login shell mode? There are many actions and variable sets
|
|
that only make sense for the initial user login. That's why all UNIX® shells
|
|
have (should have) a "login" mode.</p>
|
|
<p><em><strong>Methods to start Bash as a login shell:</strong></em>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>the first character of argv[0] is - (a hyphen): traditional UNIX® shells
|
|
start from the login binary</li>
|
|
<li>Bash is started with the -l option</li>
|
|
<li>Bash is started with the --login option</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p><em><strong>Methods to test for login shell mode:</strong></em>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>the shell option <a href="http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/internals/shell_options#login_shell">login_shell</a> is
|
|
set</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p><em><strong>Related switches:</strong></em>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>--noprofile disables reading of all profile files</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>Interactive shell</h3>
|
|
<p>When Bash starts as an interactive non-login shell, it reads and executes
|
|
commands from ~/.bashrc. This file should contain, for example, aliases,
|
|
since they need to be defined in every shell as they're not inherited from
|
|
the parent shell.</p>
|
|
<p>The feature to have a system-wide /etc/bash.bashrc or a similar system-wide
|
|
rc-file is specific to vendors and distributors that ship <em>their own, patched variant of Bash</em>.
|
|
The classic way to have a system-wide rc file is to source /etc/bashrc
|
|
from every user's ~/.bashrc.</p>
|
|
<p><em><strong>Methods to test for interactive-shell mode:</strong></em>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>the special parameter $- contains the letter i (lowercase I)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p><em><strong>Related switches:</strong></em>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>-i forces the interactive mode</li>
|
|
<li>--norc disables reading of the startup files (e.g. /etc/bash.bashrc if
|
|
supported) and ~/.bashrc</li>
|
|
<li>--rcfile defines another startup file (instead of /etc/bash.bashrc and
|
|
~/.bashrc)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>SH mode</h3>
|
|
<p>When Bash starts in SH compatiblity mode, it tries to mimic the startup
|
|
behaviour of historical versions of sh as closely as possible, while conforming
|
|
to the POSIX® standard as well. The profile files read are /etc/profile
|
|
and ~/.profile, if it's a login shell.</p>
|
|
<p>If it's not a login shell, the environment variable <a href="http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/syntax/shellvars#env">ENV</a> is
|
|
evaluated and the resulting filename is used as the name of the startup
|
|
file.</p>
|
|
<p>After the startup files are read, Bash enters the <a href="http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/scripting/bashbehaviour#posix_run_mode">POSIX(r) compatiblity mode (for running, not for starting!)</a>.</p>
|
|
<p><em><strong>Bash starts in sh compatiblity mode when:</strong></em>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>the base filename in argv[0] is sh (</p>
