http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html DESCRIPTION The shell shall execute commands from the file in the current environment. If file does not contain a <slash>, the shell shall use the search path specified by PATH to find the directory containing file. Unlike normal command search, however, the file searched for by the dot utility need not be executable. **************** bash deviates from the above, but only in non-POSIX mode (i.e. if run as "bash"; if run as "sh", it won't try current dir). NAME
dot - execute commands in the current environment
SYNOPSIS

Created attachment 7316 [details] Busybox config file (Arch Linux) Sourcing a file from the current directory does not work anymore: ~ % busybox sh # touch test.conf # source test.conf sh: source: test.conf: not found # source ./test.conf # I use the default configuration of busybox in Arch Linux (attached).
