Configuring X11 and Terminal

Here is a blog to note down some of my discoveries on how to work with UNIX/Mac OS X. Some tid bits for survival.

In Mac OS X 10.5, if you want to set alias and stuff, then you can do the following:

Edit .profile file in the home directory to configure the Terminal
Edit .bashrc if you want to configure X11

Some nice options to set as aliases:
alias ls='ls -G' : Color option for listing
