Just started testing 4.1.1. Some minor complaints (these may have been part of 4.0.0, but I didn't notice as I was not using the full initialization files from them): There should be no need to add any part of the modules path to the NON-MODULE environment variables (PATH, MANPATH, etc). In a standard install, they may already be in location in those places (I set MANPATH in a module that sets MANPATH based on the current location of MODULEPATH). I particularly have a problem with it being at the start of PATH (in my situation, the modules are in a network location and I don't want Network paths before any of the standard paths unless absolutely needed). Also - please redefine the functions (basically make sure the names are all _module_*): _moduleraw - as _module_raw (any others?). Most Linux systems (in bash at least) have a function _modules defined that has to do with kernel modules - and you probably want to make sure the module functions are obviously differentiated from that function. It would actually be very nice if you could figure out how to cut the number of aliases/functions down to as few as possible (module and _module_raw maybe, by combining the various _module_ function into one function with arguments). If I have any specific ideas on how to do this, I will let you know. Otherwise - so far it seems to be working fine.
