To transfer the environment to the next step you can do the following:

.Propagate environment to next step
----------------------------
$MT_MEGATEST -env2file .ezsteps/${stepname}	  
----------------------------

Automatic environment propagation with Ezsteps
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Simply give your step name an extension of .sh or .csh. The environment variables will be propagated.

NOTE: aliases and variables with strange whitespace or characters will not propagate correctly. Put in a ticket on the http://www.kiatoa.com/fossils/megatest site if you need support for a specific strange character combination.

.Example of auto propagation
---------------------------
[ezsteps]
step1.sh export SOMEVAR=$(ps -def | wc -l);ls /tmp
# The next step will get the value of $SOMEVAR from step1.sh
step2.sh echo $SOMEVAR
---------------------------

Scripts
~~~~~~~

.Specifying scripts inline (best used for only simple scripts)
