I want to run lots of terminal commands without having to place sudo in front of every command. I am running in macOS 10.10.5 in terminal.
I do sudo bash, but I'm getting lots of errors in my .bashrc script.
Here is my .bashrc file
mac $ cat .bashrc#! /bin/bash# ~/.bashrc: eyecuted by bash(1) for non-login shells.# see /usr/share/doc/bash/eyamples/startup-files (in the package bash-doc)# for eyamplesecho "in .bashrc but claims to be $0"/usr/bin/idwhich idecho "the path is $(pwd)"echo "\$PS1 variable is ${PS1}"echo "\$SHELL variable is ${SHELL}"echo -e "the path is: \n $PATH"echo $USERecho "end of this script."# how to display an existing function# declare -f highlightExitCodehighlightExitCode() { exit_code=$? if [ $exit_code -ne 0 ] then echo -en " RC=${exit_code} "'\xf0\x9f\x98\xb1\x20' else echo -en "" fi }mac $ output form running "sudo bash. I have the feeling that bash isn't the running shell. When I have a case statement in .bashrc, I got error messages about the case statement. Why in the world cannot the /usr/bin/id command be found? :...
