I don't think that will do it. That will export the variable so that it can
be seen by all child processes started in that session, but it won't cross
over to other sessions.

I don't know of a way to do make and environment variable be seen by all
currently active sessions.

Has activity on the list died down or is my account malfunctioning? Well, if

is the former, perhaps I can help breath some life into it, though I suspect
it's the latter.

 Is there a means of initializing an env variable in one console that can be
referenced by applications in all consoles?

There is in certain living souls
A quality of loneliness unspeakable,
So great it must be shared
As company is shared by lesser beings.
Such a loneliness is mine; so know by this
That in immensity
There is one lonelier than you.
