-<para>The shell program <command>/bin/bash</command> (hereafter

-help create an environment to run in.  Each file has a specific use and
-may affect login and interactive environments differently.  The files in

-settings. If an equivalent file exists in your home directory it may

-<prompt>[prompt]$</prompt><command>/bin/bash</command>).  A non-interactive 
-shell is usually present when a shell script is running.  It is non-interactive
