I just upgrade pycharm into 2016.3.1. Before upgrade, I do not have problem to see the current directory path under the prompt on terminal window. After upgrade into pycharm 2016
3.1. All directory path on prompt on terminal window seems like messed up with 133;C;133;D;01337;RemoteHost=hawkins#pc_name.home1337;CurrentDir=/Users/hawkins/path133;MAC:path hawkins$ 133;B for some reason. Anyone have expereience on how to resolve this?
MAC:path$
133;C;133;D;01337;RemoteHost=hawkins#pc_name.home1337;CurrentDir=/Users/hawkins/path133;MAC:path hawkins$ 133;B
133;C;133;D;01337;RemoteHost=hawkins#pc_name.home1337;CurrentDir=/Users/hawkins/path133;MAC:path hawkins$ 133;B
133;C;133;D;01337;RemoteHost=hawkins#pc_name.home1337;CurrentDir=/Users/hawkins/path133;MAC:path hawkins$ 133;B
I had a similar problem. It turned out my problem was due to have iTerm shell integration installed.
As you have tagged the question [osx], I assume that you might also have done this.
There is a nice explanation to what these strange symbols mean in this answer: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/294886/47407
I figured I could avoid having to uninstall Shell Integration by clearing my PROMT_COMMAND, and setting PS1 again. I made a shell script called pycharm_terminal.sh with the following
export PROMT_COMMAND=
export PS1="\[\e[31m\]\u\[\e[0m\] at \[\e[33m\]\h\[\e[0m\] in \[\e[32m\]\w\[\e[0m\] at [\A] \[\033[31m\]`git branch 2> /dev/null | grep -e ^* | sed -E s/^\\\\\*\ \(.+\)$/\(\\\\\1\)\ /`\[\033[35m\]\n$ \[\033[00m\]"
bash -i
The PS1 variable can be set to whatever you had before. This is just how I like mine.
Now, in PyCharm Settings: Go to Tools > Terminal and in "Shell path" set it to /bin/bash <path_to_pycharm_terminal.sh>.
Now try opening a new terminal in PyCharm. It shouldn't have those control character errors.
Solution that worked for me:
Go to Settings > Plugins
Find plugin "Python Terminal" and disable it
Restart PyCharm
The only negative effect I've noticed - auto activation of virtualenv on terminal start doesn't work.
for some reason, I figure it out by create a .pycharmrc under by user directories
and setting up /usr/local/bin/bash --rcfile ~/.pycharmrc under Tool->Terminal on shell path. It seems like it fixed but i have no idea why
MAC: path$ cat ~/.pycharmrc
exec bash
This is what worked for me:
Created new file pycharm_terminal.sh with one command bash -l
Then I set PyCharm Settings: to Tools > Terminal and in "Shell path" set it to /bin/bash/path_to_pycharm_terminal.sh.
Restart PyCharm and all work as expected
bash -l, by man, is a: -l Make bash act as if it had been invoked as a login shell (see INVOCATION below).
which is probably mean, that when PyCharm starts the Terminal and executing the pycharm_terminal.sh with bash -l, everything in .bash_profile is include by default
Found this question while trying to resolve similar issue for 'Geany' on mac osx. I had an install of iterm2 on my machine and was getting garbage in front of the terminal prompt.
similar solution as KPLauritzen offered also works for 'Geany' terminal as such.
Hope this helps someone:
Create shell script in home directory using desired PS1 & CLICOLOR settings:
~/geany_terminal.sh
export PROMT_COMMAND=
export PS1='[\e[1;32m][\u#\h \W] \D{%F %T}\n\$[\e[0m]'
export CLICOLOR=1
export LSCOLORS=gxBxhxDxfxhxhxhxhxcxcx
bash -i
Then I went to 'Edit -> Preferences --> Terminal' and set my 'Shell' to:
/bin/bash /Users/myusername/geany_terminal.sh
Upon reloading Geany, the Terminal now displays with PS1 and CLICOLOR settings exactly as I have set in my .bash_profile without garbage in front.
You can just activate your .bash_profile
/bin/bash --rcfile ~/.bash_profile

I just have installed Catalina on my imac, and I saw a terminal bash looks weird.
It should be ~$ but my terminal shows ~%
Can anyone change this uncommon line(~%) to a normal line(~$)?
Thank you in advance
You can set your PS1 variable in your .bashrc, .bash_profile, or .profile to whatever you want. For example:
export PS1=“\h \W $ “
Will give your hostname, current working directory, followed by the $ you wanted. This can be customized however you like, see this link for a good description.
Also, as chepner mentioned in the comments, you need to set your default shell back to bash. I believe the easiest thing to do is go into your terminal settings, and change your shell:
Terminal > Preferences... > General > Shells open with: Command (complete path): /bin/bash
For a long time, the bash was a default shell in macOS. However, Apple replaced Bourne Again SHell with Z shell for licensing reasons
Set default shell to bash on Macos Catalina. The procedure is as follows:
Open the terminal application.
List available shells by typing cat /etc/shells.
To update your account to use bash run chsh -s /bin/bash.
Close terminal app.
Open the terminal app again and verify that bash is your default shell.
I have some aliased defined on my .bashrc that I'd like to use on my Intellij IDEA's terminal. Why is .bashrc not sourced?
.bashrc is only loaded when Bash is running in "interactive" mode. For some reason, IntelliJ defaults to running Bash in non-interactive mode, but this is easy to change. Open the IntelliJ Settings window, then open "Tools -> Terminal", and add -i to the Shell path.
(Note that in this screenshot, I have also changed the default shell, because I'm on a Mac, which makes it difficult to update /bin/bash. Unless you have installed a different version of Bash, do not blindly copy this change!)
Had the same issue with IntelliJ.
Solved this by setting the value /bin/bash --login in setting->Tools->Terminal->Shell path.
/bin/bash --login forces the bash to read the ~/.bash_profile.
https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/205437150-Terminal-not-sourcing-bash-profile?page=1#community_comment_360000167679
In your home directory, add theses lines to .profile (create the file if it does not exist), in order to source .bashrc:
if [ "$SHELL" = "/bin/bash" ]; then
. ~/.bashrc
fi
For me, changing the line
Exec="/opt/idea-IU-183.4284.148/bin/idea.sh" %f
to
Exec=bash -ic "/opt/idea-IU-183.4284.148/bin/idea.sh" %f
worked. We exploit the hack that the interactive shell loads .bashrc :)
On Mac OSX Catalina, "/bin/bash" and ~/.zprofile worked for me:
Update:
Apple has changed the default shell to zsh. Therefore you have to rename your configuration files. .bashrc is now .zshrc and .bash_profile is now .zprofile.
My settings are in ~/.bash_profile . I solved it using:
echo "source ~/.bash_profile" >> .profile
sudo echo ". ~/.bashrc" >> /etc/bash.bashrc
Because > operator doesn't pass the sudo permissions to the write process.
I did this :
echo ". ~/.bashrc" | sudo tee /etc/bash.bashrc
I noticed that .bashrc isn't sourced only when I first install IntelliJ and run it directly via the idea.sh script in bin/.
Once I create the desktop entry via Tools -> Create Desktop Entry... and start it from the Ubuntu dash, .bashrc is sourced properly.
If you have recently moved to zsh from bash then go to ~/.zshrc file and update $PATH variable there:
Default value in .zshrc:
# If you come from bash you might have to change your $PATH.
# export PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH
Change to same PATH variable set in .bashrc and uncomment it
# If you come from bash you might have to change your $PATH.
export PATH=$HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:<my-bash-paths>:$PATH
None of these answers worked for me. What did work is
sudo nano /etc/environment
...then manually adding my export and alias commands here to make them system wide.
But be careful, do NOT mess up the PATH or you'll have trouble logging back in to your desktop environment, or many other issues.
I had this problem because the default shell had been changed to zsh.
I echoed the shell name with echo $SHELL to see this (thanks How to get default shell).
Then I changed it back to /bin/bash with this command: chsh -s /bin/bash (thanks https://apple.stackexchange.com/a/100476/176809).
Create a bash script with the content;
echo "source ~/.bash_profile" >> .profile
Then in Intellij go to preferences/tools/Startup Tasks;
create a run configuration that runs your bash script and you're good to go.
I just restarted my MAC and it picked up the new stuff.
For me at least, the only thing that works was to put this in the Shell path variable inside of Tools > Terminal :
/bin/bash --rcfile ~/.bashrc
Hi I've recently installed zsh using cygwin on my Windows machince but when I type zsh to start this I get the following:
GG#GG-PC ~
$ zsh
\[\e]0;\w\a\]\n\[\e[32m\]\u#\h \[\e[33m\]\w\[\e[0m\]\n\$
On my mac I am using iTerm2 and this is so much easier to setup on here. Also I am having trouble in setting up the aliases and this is becauses its not setup properly in terms of config file where I can set this up in a separate file.
Any ideas how I can resolve?
It looks like zsh is inheriting the value of PS1 from the previous shell. The PS1 environment variable sets the shell prompt, and zsh used a different format for prompt substitutions than other shells. Try entering the following command after you start zsh:
PS1=$'%{\e]0;%d\a%}\n%F{green}%n#%m %F{yellow}%d%f\n%# '
If that works, add that line to your ~/.zshrc file.
That's also probably a good place to put your aliases.
There might be an issue because you launch zsh from bash actually and not cygwin.
One thing you can do is to launch zsh as the starting shell of mintty (the window that wraps your shell)
Create a shortcut with this inside:
c:\<cygwin-folder>\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico /usr/bin/zsh --login -
Yo need to update .zshrc with your required theme and then
source .zshrc
I am trying to create a permanent alias for my terminal. I put the alias in my ~/.profile, ~/.bashrc, and ~/.bash_profile files, previously empty. When I start a new terminal, bash does not recognize the alias, but if I source any of them, it does. Why are these not getting run when I open a terminal? I am on OSX.
Newer MacOS versions use zsh as the default shell for both Terminal and iTerm2. Run echo $SHELL to confirm if this is the case for you.
Zsh looks for a .zshrc file upon shell startup, so to continue using zsh while sourcing the contents of your bash profile, you can run the following:
echo "source ~/.bash_profile" >> ~/.zshrc
Open a new terminal window for the changes to take effect.
Two things need to happen here when using iTerm to get the loading of dotfiles to work.
First you should add the following to your .bash_profile
[[ -s ~/.bashrc ]] && source ~/.bashrc
Secondly you will need to ensure that in iTerm preferences your terminal is set to launch a login shell.
Hope this helps!
Using the default mac terminal, what worked for me was to add a command to run on start up to source my .bash_profile.
Preferences > Profile > Startup > Add command 'source ~/.bash_profile'
Mac terminal preferences window screenshot
Might be considered to be a bit hacky, but it does the trick.
Adding source ~/.profile to my .bash_profile worked for me.
As of High Sierra, both Terminal and iTerm want to load ~/.profile first. So I suggest you put one line in your .profile to make your Mac work like other Unixes:
source ~/.bash_profile
By editing this one file, you won't have to search through the menus of multiple apps to override Apple's bizarre behavior in each.
As of Catalina the default shell is now zsh. You can change it back to bash with chsh -s /bin/bash and that should load your .profile or .bash_profile
Why are your shell's initialization files not loading?
As with most things, It Depends ™
I recently experienced the same phenomenon and went through the following exercise to resolve it:
I use iTerm. iTerm runs a login shell by default. Verify in iTerm Preferences > General > Command > (*) Login Shell
Therefore, I know that ~/.bash_profile will always be called.
Knowing that, I put the following in my ~/.bash_profile file:
for file in ~/.{bashrc,bash_exports,bash_aliases,bash_functions}; do
[ -r "$file" ] && source "$file"
done
unset file
Notice that I use separate files for .bashrc, .bash_exports, etc. It keeps things separate and simple.
Note also that /etc/profile is loaded first, but since I have never used that system wide init file, I knew that that was not my problem. For details check out $ man bash
So, I started with my ~/.bash_profile file.
I found that when I installed Canopy Express that it's installer replaced the contents of my ~/.bash_profile file with the following content:
# Added by Canopy installer on 2017-04-19
# VIRTUAL_ENV_DISABLE_PROMPT can be set to '' to make the bash prompt show that Canopy is active, otherwise 1
alias activate_canopy="source '/Users/lex/dev/python/User/bin/activate'"
# VIRTUAL_ENV_DISABLE_PROMPT=1 source '/Users/lex/dev/python/User/bin/activate'
p.s. Canopy is an excellent, free python IDE, that I highly recommend.
Fortunately, I backup my ~/.bash* files so restoring that was easy and quickly fixed my issue.
My advice would be to understand the order of calls to your initialization files and start with the first one and work your way through them until you find the problem.
Oh, and you may want to verify which shell you are using (I use bash):
~ $ echo $SHELL
/usr/local/bin/bash
I am guessing you may use another shell, such as bash, tcsh, sh, zsh etc.
Put source .bash_profile into your appropriate 'bashrc' file will make the auto loading recovered, i.e.
.login for tcsh, .bash_profile for bash, .zshrc for zsh
My issue was solved by unchecking Preferences > General > tmux >
Use "tmux" profile rather than profile of the connecting session
Most likely, you need to create the files yourself as they appear not to exist by default. You should give them execute permission to make them run.
~ % sudo chmod 700 ~/.bash_profile
Also, you should check the ownership of the files. They should belong to current user rather than root. Otherwise, you will get permission denied error.
~ % ls -a -l
~ % sudo chown <user_name> ~/.bash_profile
Finally, please note that bash looks in your home directory for .bash_profile, .bash_login, and .profile in order. Bash will stop looking if the first is found.
This means if you have both .bash_profile and .profile files, the .profile will not run.
For more information
Hope this would help you.
Little late to the party but it seems that the file .zprofile is the equivalent to that of .bash_profile when loading zsh. I used this instead to execute a few commands on startup. Of course this only valid for a specific iTerm setup with zsh.
https://zsh.sourceforge.io/Intro/intro_3.html
I have installed Hadoop and every time I want to run it, first I have to do this:
source ~/.bash_profile
or it won't recognize the command hadoop
Why is that?
I am on OSX 10.8
Now that we've narrowed down the problem:
Run ps -p $$ at the command line to check if you are, in fact, using a bash shell.
Realize that you are in zsh, which means you should be editing your profile in .zshrc.
Copy the offending lines from .bash_profile to .zshrc, OR
Modify your .zshrc to directly source your .bash_profile.
UPDATE: Do what #TC1 mentions in the comments and keep the shell-specific code in each shell's own profile, and from those profiles, only source shell-agnostic code.
On Mac Catalina, I just had to open "preferences" on terminal and change the "shells open with" from "default" to "Command(complete path)", which the default path was "/bin/zsh". touch ~/.zshrc, if that file doesn't exist already, and copy/paste your stuff from ".bash_profile" into the ".zshrc" file.
To elaborate, with terminal running, I opened "settings" from the Terminal menu on the Mac navbar. On the "General" tab, look for "Shells open with" select "Command (complete path)", and type in /bin/zsh.
bash_profile.sh is applicable for bash shell.
if your default shell is not bash and if your default shell is someother shell for example zsh then you have to manually load the .bash_profile using source ~/.bash_profile.
You can always change the default shell to bash shell so that the .bash_profile file will be automatically loaded.
Inorder to automatically load .bash_profile, you can update your default shell to bash using the command chsh -s /bin/bash
cat /etc/shells will list the default shells available in the
machine
echo $SHELL will display the currently active shell in your machine
To change active shell to a different shell, use chsh -s /bin/bash.
Then echo $SHELL to verify if the shell has changed.
Terminal -> Preference -> profile -> Shell -> Run command : source ~/.bash_profile
Tick on run inside shell.
After doing all those , just logout and check weather everything works fine or not
I tried the approved answer. Changing the .zshrc file works for one of my machines. But for the other one, when I run ps -p $$, it is -sh under the command. And I changed both bash and zsh files, neither of them works for me this time.
So I found this
https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/Bash-Startup-Files.html
it mentioned
"When Bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, or as a non-interactive shell with the --login option, it first reads and executes commands from the file /etc/profile, if that file exists. "
so I went to that file /etc/profile and add "source ~/.bashrc" in that file. Then it works since every time a terminal is opened, it runs the command in that /etc/profile file.
Not sure if this is the best solution but it works.
sudo nano /etc/bashrc and change that, restarted the terminal and it finally remembered with command. Tried ~/.bash_profile and ~/.bashrc without success, just wasn't sourcing it.
Go to “Preferences/Profiles then look in the right window and find “shell”.
Once in that if your “Startup Run Command” hasn’t been turned on. Click the box to turn it on and in the command section type:
(If you made a .zsh file)
source .zsh ; clear
(If you made a .bash_profile)
source .bash_profile ; clear
Doing this ; clear
Will clear your terminal to a new page so that you don’t see your terminal display:
“Last login: etc
User#user-Mac ~ % source .zsh
If you typed the commands as I said you should just get this:
User#user-Mac ~ %
That way you will be greeted with a clear page with no extra jumbo. Also to make sure that your .zsh or .bash_profile aliases work type the following command to see a list of your custom aliases:
Alias
One alias I like to do is
alias LL=“ls -la”
This will display a tree or the directory you are in as well as hidden files.
