This way IDL_STARTUP will be a local variable in your .bash_profile. To
export this variable to the environment you'll have to use:

declare -x IDL_STARTUP=/home/pepijn/gokey/gokey_startup.pro

or

export IDL_STARTUP=/home/pepijn/gokey/gokey_startup.pro

To check if your environment variables have been set correctly, type
'set' at the command prompt.

HTH, Pepijn Kenter.
