 **NOTE**\ : Keep in mind how Bash loads its configuration files,

-`iTerm2 <https://www.iterm2.com/>`_\ ) and ``.bashrc`` for interactive shells (default mode in most of the GNU/Linux terminal emulators),

+``.bash_profile`` for login shells and ``.bashrc`` for interactive shells, to ensure that Bash-it is loaded correctly.
 A good "practice" is sourcing ``.bashrc`` into ``.bash_profile`` to keep things working in all the scenarios.
 To achieve this, you can add this snippet in your ``.bash_profile``\ :
 
 .. code-block::
 
-   if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
-     . ~/.bashrc
+   if [[ $- == *"i"* && -f ~/.bashrc ]]; then
