 # ~/.bashrc. You dont want this. .bashrc is meant for interactive shells

-# this work, you need to alter AcceptEnv in /etc/ssh/sshd_config, adding
-# the var BRC to it. And in ~/.ssh/config or equivalent, add SendEnv
-# BRC, plus any other environment vars you want to send. This function
-# uses the BRC environment variable to enable that. Also, I don't keep
-# most of my bashrc in .bashrc, because even though I return, the whole
-# file gets parsed which can fail if there is a syntax error (plus,
-# faster bash startup when we are just going to return).
