Module init_file

Running initialization files

This module provides functions for running initialization files in the shell. The initialization file is a script that is executed when the shell starts up.

Currently, this module only supports running the POSIX-defined rcfile, whose path is determined by the value of the ENV environment variable. (TODO: Support for yash-specific initialization files will be added later.)

The run_rcfile function is the main entry point for running the rcfile. Helper functions that are used by run_rcfile are also provided in this module.
