[Modules] Variable interpolation within set-alias and set-function

[Dusek, N. <nic...@nd...>]

Hello,

I am using the set-function directive in Modules v4.5.3 and am trying to interpolate TCL variables within the command string before exporting the function to the environment. For example:

#%Module

set var "hello"

set-function greeting {
    echo "$var"
}

However, when I load the module and run 'type greeting' I get the following:

greeting is a function
greeting ()
{
    echo "$var"
}

Whereas, what I would really like to see is:

greeting is a function
greeting ()
{
    echo "hello"
}

How do I instruct Modules to interpolate "$var" to its value of "hello" before exporting the function, rather than exporting it with "$var" verbatim?

Thanks,
Nick
