How to change your SHELL (to BASH)
You can change your shell from tcsh to bash by running:
chsh
Enter
/bin/athena/bash
for your new shell.
If your account was created in August 2004 or earlier, then to get the
standard Athena environment, you'll need to copy some dotfiles into
your home directory. Run the following:
cp /usr/prototype_user/.bash* ~
After you log out and back in again, the change should take effect.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To change your shell back to tcsh, or to a different shell, you can
still use chsh; tcsh is located in /bin/athena/tcsh . However, note
that bash and tcsh are the only supported shells for which there exist
standard Athena dotfiles.
