I’m trying to get environment modules set up properly for a multiuser cluster environment. I have two versions set up now; 0.6 and 1.1, and I would like to add environment variables to the modules to set it up so that users can use a set of global, read-only Julia modules while still being able to install their own Julia modules in their own directories. I think this requires setting the JULIA\_LOAD\_PATH variable - is it sufficient to to set that variable to something like

> /home/$USER/.julia/1.1:/opt/local/Julia/1.1/stdlib

?

Thanks!
