These come in very useful indeed, but you need to be (a bit) careful.
The script you're sourcing may (and will, in the case of OpenFOAM)
depend on the environment in which it is run.
If you generate a module file from the script you source, you're
basically locking the environment into the module,
which might not be what you want/need.

Hi Bart,
The OpenFOAM libraries and binaries are (apparently) installed to
non-standard locations (i.e. not /bin, /lib, etc.).
However, OpenFOAM provides a bash script that should be sourced before
using OpenFOAM, that should make the necessary adjustments to $PATH,
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc.
Apparently it's (very) tricky to source scripts when loading a module,
so you still need to do that yourself after loading the OpenFOAM
module.
Simply running "source $FOAM_BASH" (or ". $FOAM_CSH") should do
the trick.
Let us know if that helps resolve the issues you're seeing.
regards,
Kenneth
