Quick source

This tip is valid for:
Both BeOS and Haiku
After editing your .profile or UserSetupEnvironment, you need to “source” or basically “re-read” the file’s contents into memory in order for the changes to take effect. I’m lazy, and “source” is 5 letters too many. Just type:
. .profile
(or . ~/.profile if you are not in your home dir)
instead of
source .profile
Isn’t that much better? ; ^ )
