You can always source a file from a running shell. The command "source"
with a file name argument reads and executes commands from that file.
This is different from just executing the file as a script in the usual
manner because side-effects on the shell itself (changing the current
directory or re-/setting variables, e.g.) effect the shell that
executed the "source" command rather than a sub-shell launched
specifically to execute the script.
Period ('.') is a synonym for "source." Source does PATH searching to
find the file given as an argument.
Thanks for all the suggestion.
