Thanks for your effort. If you can run . etc/.enviroment, does ". etc/.enviroment dev_env" mean copy environment file to dev_env? I believe dev_env is defined somewheren locally.

"Originally Posted by Perderabo
It is possible that a private .. command has been defined somehow. "

Or, put the question into the other way, if you want to reset your local environment by using .enviroment file, how do you do it?

See environ(5) for descriptions of the following environment variables that affect the execution of pwd: LANG, LC_ALL, LC_MESSAGES, and NLSPATH. EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: 0 Successful completion. >0 An error occurred. If an error is detected, output will not be written to standard output, a diagnostic message will be written to standard error, and the exit status will not be 0. ATTRIBUTES
