No color when using ls

["Pico Geyer" <picog at softstart dot co dot za>]

Hi all.

I know this has probably been discussed before but I can't get it to
work on my system. When using ls, the output is not in color. So I read
that the following line should be added to .bashrc

alias ls='ls --color=tty'

I have done this, but it does not work.
I guess my .bashrc file is not being read on startup, but I don't know
how to fix it.
.bashrc is located in my home directory. ( I've set my %HOME%
environment variable to c:\home\myhomedir)
I then tried to move .bashrc to / ( which is c:\cygwin ,as far as I can
tell) but this did not help.

I'm using RXVT to display my terminal.
Any advice on what I should to fix this would be appreciated. 
Thanks
