This is just my .bashrc . I name it .bashrc.jas so it doesn't immediately clobber whatever .bashrc is on whatever new system I am on. I usually rename an existing .bashrc to .bashrc.orig, then create a symlink for .bashrc to this file.

Sourcing this file loads all environment variables in this file and creates the files it creates.

This file increments the ${JAS_ROX} variable in itself by:

    $ ./.bashrc.jas incr

...then ${JAS_ROX} will be changed to today's date. I use this to let me know what version of this file is currently on the current system.

A list of files that .bashrc.jas creates:

    $ grep '^## ' .bashrc.jas |sort
