 The point I am trying to make to you is that I do not understand what
 effect you want to achieve and exactly why you think that you can only
 achieve this effect through the use of commands in .profile or use of
 the source command.
 
 Nothing you have stated in your PR or in your communication with me
 tells me exactly what effect you want to achieve and why you think this
 effect can only occur in a .profile or a sourced file.  I need to
 understand exactly what you want to have happen so that I can debug and
 help you solve your problems.  The documentation for the notify option
 states that it operates exactly like the -b flag.  Have you used the -b
 flag and found the same effect?
