Well yes I could adjust 'env export -t' to use the same format - is that a
good idea, or not? I can see down-sides. We can of course convert existing
files brought in by 'env import -t' (by making the import flexible) but I
worry that there might be external tools that users have which expect the
format to be a certain way.
I agree creating a new format is not ideal - it's just that the existing C
header format is so painful...

Simon
