Easy Environment Setup
The Copy/Paste environment setup
Below is a way to set up a profile of aliases and more particularly environment variables that can be set up ready to be included in your startup scripts as well as in custom or crontab scripts.
Copy/Paste this directly into a bash terminal. You will then need to edit the created file (~/bin/my_env) to alter the bits with 'changeme' in there.
Obviously add your own variables and aliases in there too!
(:source:) if ! [ -d ~/bin ]; then mkdir ~/bin export PATH="~/bin:$PATH" fi cat > ~/bin/my_env <<EOF export P4PORT=changeme:1666 export P4CHARSET=utf8 export P4CLIENT=changeme export P4USER=changeme export ODBCINI=/etc/odbc.ini export ODBCSYSINI=/etc export FREETDSCONF=/etc/freetds/freetds.conf export RUBYOPTS=rubygems alias ll='ls -l' alias la='ls -A' alias l='ls -CF' alias vis='vim -S project.session' # Put current git branch in bash prompt export PS1='\u@\h:\w$(__git_ps1 " (%s)") \$ ' export PATH=$PATH:/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/:/home/jezm/programs/android-sdk/tools/ EOF echo . ~/bin/my_env >> ~./bashrc echo 'done.'
You can add any other env vars to this.
