Slightly unfair sweeping generalisations apart, if you look at rvm's source code: <https://github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm.git> it's written in bash to a great extent but fully supports zsh. As I posted earlier (last night) Mac Ports & rvm are at odds in the profile files. Funnily enough perlbrew, which I also use for my perl distributions (it only deals with Perl & is not to be confused with homebrew), does not have this problem. It places a line in .bash_profile to source a long & thorough script in .bashrc for its tweaking of your $PATH. As I also commented in my last post, I have only the problem now of when sourcing my bash_profile in an already open window, Mac Ports addition takes preference over rvm's addition (I also have a Ruby installed by Mac Ports) & I can live with that. Unless some accommodation is made between the two additions, I believe this is the way it will stay. No big deal. Cheers, Phil... - -- But masters, remember that I am an ass.
