AIX question

What is the file that holds the settings that are kind of like path statements in windows?  So that when you type a command you only type the command and not the directory and command everytime.

For bourne shell, it is ~/.profile, look for the statement "PATH=".
For c shell, it is ~/.cshrc, look for the statement "setenv PATH".

Take a look at /etc/profile, this file is the default profile for all users, the .profile in the users home directory is used for individual changes/preferences.
