How to make terminal start quite fresh?

  • 772

In one of my previous sessions using terminal, I typed ^D by mistake.
And now every time I start the terminal, there's this: 

^D: command not found

What should I do?

I have used the command clear several times, but every time I start the terminal, that line appears again.

enter image description here

command-line gnome-terminal bash

    Because of installing Cisco AnyConnect client, I had typed 

    $ cat >> ~/.bash_aliases
alias vpn='/opt/cisco/anyconnect/bin/vpn'
alias vpnui='/opt/cisco/anyconnect/bin/vpnui'
^D

    So the non existing command ^D was written in my ~/.bash_aliases file which is run every time I open the terminal.

    To solve the problem, type:

    nano ~/.bash_aliases

    and delete the command ^D
