I am new in ROS. I have a question.

When I use ROS, I have to do like this every time I start new window of Terminal.

$ source ~/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash

and this step enable me to use "roscd".

Do I have to do this step every time? Or does anyone know how to skip this step? If there is a website about this, please let me know.

Put this line in your .bashrc and it will be executed every time you open a terminal automatically.

As explained by domhege open your ~/.bashrc and change the following line

source /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash

into:

source ~/your_ros_workspace/setup.bash

or if you don't have it, just add it. You don't need to type it anymore
