works for shell scripts only. If you want a new shell invocation
to inherit functions, you have to put them in your ENV file.
If you have the new (1988) ksh, you can set FPATH to a colon-separated
list of directories that ksh searches for auto-load functions. This
works like PATH does for command searching.
