@kevin This is a complicated question, more so than people think. Among many attempts to explain it that you have no doubt found is this one: https://linuxize.com/post/bashrc-vs-bash-profile/ but the short answer is there is no good way to do this for everything, you need to have your use case(s) in mind and mapped out and provide for each of them. Just when you think you've got it figured out, another comes along, so try, rinse, and repeat if needed.
