Summary : Provides dynamic modification of a user's environment

License : GPLv2+
Description : The Environment Modules package provides for the dynamic modification of
: a user's environment via modulefiles.
:
: Each modulefile contains the information needed to configure the shell
: for an application. Once the Modules package is initialized, the
: environment can be modified on a per-module basis using the module
: command which interprets modulefiles. Typically modulefiles instruct
: the module command to alter or set shell environment variables such as
: PATH, MANPATH, etc. modulefiles may be shared by many users on a system
: and users may have their own collection to supplement or replace the
: shared modulefiles.
:
: Modules can be loaded and unloaded dynamically and atomically, in an
: clean fashion. All popular shells are supported, including bash, ksh,
: zsh, sh, csh, tcsh, as well as some scripting languages such as perl.
:
: Modules are useful in managing different versions of applications.
: Modules can also be bundled into metamodules that will load an entire
: suite of different applications.
:
: NOTE: You will need to get a new shell after installing this package to
: have access to the module alias.
