Article name
[edit]I think this page should be renamed to "Run commands" per Wikipedia:Naming conventions (capitalization). --Canaima (talk) 18:02, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

"run-control"
[edit]While not historically precise, rc may also be expanded as "run control", because an rc file controls how a program runs. For instance, the editor Vim looks for and reads the contents of the .vimrc file to determine its initial configuration. In The Art Of Unix Programming, Eric S. Raymond consistently refers to rc files as "run-control" files.
And yet '.vimrc' is an rc in the sense of 'run command' since it literally is a sequence of Vim commands, similar to the .emacs file. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Morgan greywolf (talk • contribs) 14:32, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
