Terminal versus xterm anomaly



It appears that the bash shell don't read it's initialisation files correctly in the xterm window.
The bash initaliation files .bash_profile or .bash_login are not read. Because of this, the
PATH environment variable is not setup to include the /usr/local/bin and ~/bin directrories.
I've managed to correct this in the FIRST xterm window opened when the x11 App launches,
but subsequent windows don't get correctly initialised.
Thankful for any useful idea on how to fix this.
