Tibor,

You need to ensure that your .bashrc and .vimrc are UNIX like
files and not DOS.  That is, each line must be terminated only
by a line feed, not a CR/LF as in DOS.  This should fix your
problems.  A command such as this will do the trick:

  tr -d '\\r' < .bashrc > .bashrc.tmp

If the text looks funny in Notepad, then the command succeeded.

For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to
