I think the suggestion was to generate a fish-parsable profile which you
source at login. This is what I have done using some horribly ugly hand
rolled ruby scripts to convert formats. The other interesting thing you can
experiment once you've done this is making many of the profile environment
variables universally scoped, and thus even easier to keep in sync across
shells. However, a big word of caution: *do not* under any circumstances
make PATH universal. I speak from bitter experience, as you will be unable
to edit it safely, and find surprising amounts of breakage from various fish
scripts that are constantly run and expect access to a valid PATH. =/ Other
profile-based variables are great though! ;]
