Editing the bashrc file in Elementary OS
  1. Edit ~/.bashrc in your favourite editor. This file is located in the root file system, not the Home folder. You may need to open as root, but only if the icon shows a padlock or no entry symbol.

  3. Save the file, exit the text editor and restart Terminal.
