. has always used PATH; but in older shells, it also implicitly tacked . onto its path search. Since this was a security hole for trojan files, POSIX forbids implicit `.'. Thus, the only safe way to source a file in the current directory is with anchored notation, since you can't rely on `.' being in the user's PATH. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
