Here is a party I’m a bit late in joining. And it is one of those ideas that makes you smack your head wondering why you didn’t think of it. Config file tweaks For years, I’ve maintained a tar.Z bundle that contains a .profile, .cshrc, .bashrc, .vimrc etc. You can tell how old it is by the fact that I still maintain it with compress rather than gzip. When I started it, gzip did not exist.
