Feb 3, 2012 at 16:29 comment added cjm @CaldwellYSR, the short version is that ssh host command sources .bashrc. If that generates output, it'll confuse any scripts trying to run remote commands on your host & account. You might not be doing that now, but someday you might, and then you'll be confused why it doesn't work.

Feb 3, 2012 at 14:29 comment added CaldwellYSR @cjm Yeah, I realized that this morning about the order. I already had it in the correct order, I just didn't have the ` in front of clear` I'll look at that information about the bashrc and output. Thanks for the link.
Feb 3, 2012 at 7:29 comment added cjm You probably want to do this in the other order, or the clear will erase any output that .bashrc generated. But it's also a bad idea to have .bashrc generate output at all.
