What are you doing here??? ... looks like you do not understand how the
environment is working ... env prints a list of all exported shell
variables (that is the environment) ... there after you are just reading
in (ohps ... sourcing) the same values back to the same variables ...
that is just pure wasting of resources (mostly time consumption) without
any advantage.

Your script should work without that ... with full access to all values
env can list at that point.

lol I guess I didn't even think about it, but you're right. If that's the environment set by mdev, those variables and values are all accessible within the script natively. Good catch!

Realizing this now, I think the PATH variable should be added to the "standard" set of variables as part of the mdev environment. However, this value would need to be passed by the actual shell PATH and not a pre-defined one from mdev. I noticed that this was the case while running tests over the last couple of days.
