Sourcing means executing with dot . your env file you use in your profile, can be .profile, .kshrc .bashrc etc...
Let's say you just modified your environment like you just added an alias:
alias='ls -la' #this is for most sh and ksh, the syntax may differ for her and is for csh...
Now you want to test lets say you modified .kshrc, to test there is no need to log out and connect again, you can also:
Code:
 . ./.kshrc

Now you can also add the above to be executed at the beginning of your script, the only problem is your environment is done to meet interactive mode e.g standard input/output etc... are set, which is of no use and more gererates error when being set as for instance you dont have a display...
So either you accept all the errors hoping it will continue anyway ( because you are testing - you want to see there is something there missing for batchmode... ) you see it works so you are then left to find out what... Either you test if batchmode or interactive and use an if to skip what is set for interactive in your .profile

platform::shell

platform::shell(n)					       Tcl Bundled Packages						platform::shell(n)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       platform::shell - System identification support code and utilities

SYNOPSIS

       package require platform::shell ?1.1.4?

       platform::shell::generic shell
       platform::shell::identify shell
       platform::shell::platform shell
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       The platform::shell package provides several utility commands useful for the identification of the architecture of a specific Tcl shell.

       This  package  allows the identification of the architecture of a specific Tcl shell different from the shell running the package. The only
       requirement is that the other shell (identified by its path), is actually executable on the current machine.

       While for most platform this means that the architecture of the interrogated shell is identical to the architecture of  the  running  shell
       this  is  not generally true. A counter example are all platforms which have 32 and 64 bit variants and where a 64bit system is able to run
       32bit code. For these running and interrogated shell may have different 32/64 bit settings and thus different identifiers.

       For applications like a code repository it is important to identify the architecture of the shell which will  actually  run  the  installed
       packages, versus the architecture of the shell running the repository software.

COMMANDS

       platform::shell::identify shell
	      This command does the same identification as platform::identify, for the specified Tcl shell, in contrast to the running shell.

       platform::shell::generic shell
	      This command does the same identification as platform::generic, for the specified Tcl shell, in contrast to the running shell.

       platform::shell::platform shell
	      This command returns the contents of tcl_platform(platform) for the specified Tcl shell.
