Every user wants to setup his own shell to their liking.

Probably setting an EDITOR variable is the most important thing ever.

When I used bash, I setup .bashrc to be like:

 EDITOR=mcedit; export EDITOR 

Now with zsh, my .zshrc looks like: 

# set screen window name (this is really a nice trick if you use screen) if [[ $TERM == "screen" ]]; then  preexec() { echo -ne "\033k$1\033\\" } fi EDITOR=mcedit; export EDITOR export PS1='%n@%m:%~%(!.#.$) ' unset RPS1 HISTSIZE=1000 SAVEHIST=1000 HISTFILE=~/.history

People that create Debian packages will also want to set  DEBEMAIL  and  DEBFULLNAME .

Users may also consider sites such as Bashish, which provides a "theme" like infrastructure, and lots of themes.
