that's a good point.  i see three options:

- do nothing.  this is the easiest :)
- export the variables into the environment.  not too hard to do,
  but also means the load script has to search the environment.
- export the variables as global variables in the script.  trickier
  to do but nicer for the script-writer.

personally, i like the third option best, though it's the most work.
i probably won't have time to work on it any time soon, but i'll put it
in the TODO file so we can at least know it's in the plan...


	sean
