If you would like, you may take this time to update your PS1 or PS2 definitions for your prompt interface.
Add the following aliases to help make your Linux install more interactive:
rm => rm -i
cp => cp -i
la => ls -la
lv => ls -lav
Occassionally, you will have to access things called "CVS" repositories. In order to access the vast majority, you will have to set an environmental variable "CVS_RSH" to "ssh" to ensure that your communications are encrypted. Add such a definition to your .bashrc now.
You may also want to define an $EDITOR variable that points to your editor of choice. Do that now.
