rk e816ab15b5 modules is a shell tool for setting-up the user environment on the
fly, as it were.  It's a powerful mechanism for dynamically changing
environment variables, aliases, X11 resources, etc.
It uses an embedded Tcl intrepretor, with a few extensions.  Therefore,
it has a well defined language syntax.
Version 3.1 is GPL, and includes many improvements over the 3.0beta.

dot files

This directory contains the typical Unix user environment set-up
as defined through user dot files. Each user is given
a selection of these dot-files and are customized by the
user to his wishes. (An alternative is proposed in ../ext.)
There are system or global shell login files, but changes in them
can have disasterous results and side-effects if not fully tested.
The add.modules script can add or modify the appropriate lines at the
beginning of the dot-files to set-up the modules environment.
The user skeleton dot-files are in ./skel
The global shell login files are in ./global
