alias not available

hello,

I run Mac osx and am just starting to learn emacs. I am trying to  
figure out how to get emacs to "see" all the alias's and functions I  
have in my .bash_profile file. My alias's and functions work fine at  
the standard 'nix command line but as soon as I try to call one from  
a 'nix shell buffer, no joy. Any body got the magic incantation  
needed to fix this? Thanks in advance.

You could try

	. ~/.bash_profile

in ~/.emacs_bash. Create new *shell* buffer and try ...

When in doubt, use brute force.

Wait, how are you generating the shell buffers?  If you use M-x shell it
will use your regular bash shell.  My aliases are in .bashrc and they
get loaded by both bash and emacs (with M-x shell).  I would try moving
your aliases to .bashrc then using M-x shell.
