<H3><A NAME="Heading13"></A><FONT COLOR="#000077">Customizing Your pdksh</FONT></H3>

<P>Many ways of customizing <TT>pdksh</TT> have been described in this chapter. Until now, though, the changes that you made only affected the current <TT>pdksh</TT> session. As soon as you quit pdksh, all of the customizations that you made were lost. However, there is a way of making the customizations more permanent.</P>

<P>This is done by storing all of your customizations in a <TT>pdksh</TT> initialization file. Users can put commands into this file that they want to be executed each and every time <TT>pdksh</TT> is started. Examples of commands that are typically found in this file are aliases and initializations of variables (such as the prompts).</P>

<P>In order to set up your customization file, you must tell <TT>pdksh</TT> where to look for the initialization file. This is different than with <TT>bash</TT>. The <TT>bash</TT> shell automatically knows where to look for its customization file. To tell pdksh where to look for the customization file, you need to create a file in your home directory called <TT>.profile</TT>. This file is read and all of the commands in the file are executed each time you log in to the system.</P>

<P>A sample of the commands that you should place in your <TT>.profile</TT> file are as follows:</P>

<!-- CODE SNIP //-->

<PRE>

export ENV=&#36;HOME/.kshrc

EDITOR=emacs

</PRE>

<!-- END CODE SNIP //-->

<P>The first line in the <TT>.profile</TT> file sets the <TT>ENV</TT> variable. This is the variable that <TT>pdksh</TT> looks at to find the initialization file that it should use. If you plan to customize <TT>pdksh</TT>, you should tell <TT>pdksh</TT> to look for a file in your home directory. The filename <TT>.kshrc</TT> is often used as the <TT>pdksh</TT> initialization filename, but you can pick another name if you want.</P>

<P>If you are not planning to customize <TT>pdksh</TT>, you can set the <TT>ENV</TT> variable to be equal to the system default <TT>pdksh</TT> initialization file. This file is in the <TT>/etc</TT> directory and is called <TT>ksh.kshrc</TT>.</P>

<P>The second line in the <TT>.profile file sets the EDITOR</TT> variable. This is used by the <TT>.kshrc</TT> initialization file to determine what type of command-line editing commands to use for your session. If you prefer to use <TT>vi</TT> command-line editing, you can set this variable to be equal to <TT>vi</TT>.</P>

<BLOCKQUOTE>

<P><FONT SIZE="-1"><HR><B>Tip:&nbsp;&nbsp;</B><BR>Instead of copying the file to your home directory, you can create a new file in your home directory that calls the system default file, and then add customizations afterward.<HR></FONT>

<H3><A NAME="Heading14"></A><FONT COLOR="#000077">pdksh Commands</FONT></H3>

<P>There are a lot of commands available to you in the <TT>pdksh</TT> shell, but most of them you&#146;ll never need. Some of the most useful built-in <TT>pdksh</TT> commands are shown in Table 12.2.</P>

<P>We&#146;ve looked at many of the features of the Public Domain Korn Shell (<TT>pdksh</TT>). It is similar to the Bourne Again Shell in many aspects, but it does add some new utilities.</P>

<P>In the next chapter, we look at <TT>tcsh</TT>, a version of the C shell that is available with Linux. After you have seen the features and the way you use the three shells, you should be able to decide which shell is best for you to use on a regular basis. Of course, you can use any shell at any time by simply typing its name. You may want to learn about other subjects before moving on to the C shell. To:</P>

<DD>Learn about shell programming and how you can use it to make your experience with <TT>bash</TT> more powerful, see Chapter 14, &#147;Shell Programming.&#148;

<DD>Learn about using editors to create and edit files, see Chapter 16, &#147;Text Editors: <TT>vi</TT> and <TT>emacs</TT>.&#148;
