When you say
.profile it say to spawn a new child shell and execute the script. while when u say . ~/.profile it means you are executing the script in present shell. say if you have any variables in .profile and unless u export in first case they will not be visible to parent shell. while in second case u will have variable set at current shell level, and will be access even if they are not exported. rishi
