Hi.

I have been trying to get an alias to work.

I start my bash shell from cygwin.bat with the following command:

bash --login -i -c 'rxvt -geometry 80x29 -sb -sl 10000 -bg Black -fg 
green -bd LightSeaGreen -fn Courier -font 7x15'

Then I set an alias.
I've tried ~/.bashrc ~/.profile ~/.bash_profile /etc/profile,
but can't get the alias to 'take'.

How do I do it?
The documentation tells me clearly .bashrc but I think because I'm using 
rxvt there's a snag.

Thanks for any help.
Kind regards.
