The point then is that this file actually does not serve its purpose. It
does not behave as, for example, ".bashrc" does. In other words, one
cannot simply write multiline shell code in there without experiencing this
ugly side effect. I understand the problem here, but why not, for
instance, concatenate lines with " ; "
in order to make one line out of them
before sending them to 'bash'?
