Re: "rxvt -e bash" From Batch File

When I envoke "rxvt -e bash" from a command line
I get rxvt with bash and bash sourced my .bashrc
file.  However, when I put "rxvt -e bash" in a
batch file, launch the batch file, I get rxvt
with bash, but my .bashrc file is not sourced...

Does anyone know why my batch file doesn't source
.bashrc and/or how I can get the batch file to
source?  I'm guessing I'm starting a login
bash session, but I'm not certain...


Try using rxvt -e /bin/bash --login -i You can specify all manner of things there as well.. EG: black bg and green text: -fg Green -bg Black

Spinning complacently in the darkness, covered and blinded by a blanket
of little lives, false security has lulled the madness of this world
into a slumber. Wake up! An eye is upon you, staring straight down and
keenly through, seeing all that you are and everything that you will
never be. Yes, an eye is upon you, an eye ready to blink. So face
forward, with arms wide open and mind reeling. Your future has
arrived... Are you ready to go?
