Commonly in your/a bashrc

This really depends on what shell do you use. Typical locations for bash are ~/.bashrc, ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login and /etc/profile. For other shells these locations will differ. So, check the man page for your shell.

I am using /bin/tcsh

Then I guess you should be reading the man page for tcsh. The initialization files will differ from those used by bash. I only used csh marginally in my university, so I can't really be of much help with it.
