I have just ~/.bash_profile which reads > ~/.bashrc if it exists. /etc/bashrc and ~/.bashrc are executed whenever you start a new Bash shell. /etc/profile and ~/.profile are executed if your shell is a login shell. profile is used by other Bourne-compatible shells too, hence it's content has to be POSIX compliant. What we are talking about has nothing to do with GUI vs. command line. I'm using fvwm2 which simply inherits everything from the CLI setup. Other GUIs might behave different for no good reason. You can be sure that whenever you invoke a new instance of Bash, /etc/bashrc and ~/.bashrc are executed.
