Why the '/./' here?
Isn't `/usr/bin/printenv` equivalent, clearer, and simpler?
Sure, but I didn't get that far. printenv works in tcsh without the
path but not in bash, so I tried that in bash, it worked and voilà.
That's because in tcsh it's a built-in shell command, but in bash it
invokes /usr/bin/printenv. For some reason you seem not to have
/usr/bin in your path or something.
