Do you use the Korn shell - and does your account have an
"ENV file" (2.2)
(a startup file named in the ENV environment variable)?
bash users, you probably have setup files like .bashrc or
.bash_login.
You might have the same
problem (2.9)
that C shell users have with .cshrc:
noninteractive shells read aliases and other lines that you want
to be read only by interactive shells.
Speed up your file by adding a test like this:
case
|
case $- in
*i*);;
*) return 0;;
esac
# COMMANDS BELOW THIS LINE WILL ONLY BE RUN BY INTERACTIVE SHELLS:
... |
|---|
The test checks to see if the shell's -i option is set.
If it isn't, the return 0 quits the file.
