RE: setting $PATH
Simple fix:
ln -s $HOME/.bash_profile $HOME/.bashrc
ln -s $HOME/.bash_profile $HOME/.profile
Then it should show up.
Alternatively, you can put everything in /etc/profile and make sure it
gets sourced in one of your rc files.

Subject: setting $PATH
I put the following
----
CVSROOT="/var/lib/cvs"
export CVSROOT
----
in my ~/.bash_profile.
When I login from a TTY terminal, this variable is set.
I would like to have it set when I start an xterm (or variant, wterm...)
session from the current Xsession I'm logged into.
I think I would also like to have it in my Xsession environment.
But I can't seem to find a successful place to put these commands.
.bashrc seems to work.
But where can I put it once and have it appear in both the TTY and xterm
environments?
What about the X session environment?
