There is a tool designed specifically for this sort of adjustment to the environment, called "environment modules": This was standard kit on SGI Irix -- now that we are replacing the SGI workstations with MacOSX at work I use the (experimental) tcl version. The big advantage of using environment modules is that it reliably restores the default environment. -- George N.
