-==== Make module loading persistent ==== +
- +
-Upon login, the shell (''bash'' in our case) executes a number of files if they exist. One of them is the ''.bashrc''. To prepare it for management using the the ''module'' command, simply execute the following **once**: +
- +
-<code> +
-$ echo 'module load ' >> ~/.bashrc +
-</code> +
- +
-after that you can add and remove modules to be loaded at startup using ''module initadd'' or ''module initrm''. +
- +
-To add ''cp2k'', run for example: +
- +
-<code> +
-$ module initadd cp2k/r18057_2017_09_18 +
-</code> +
- +
-to remove ''cp2k'' again from the list of modules to load: +
- +
-<code> +
-$ module initrm cp2k +
-</code>+
  
-Alternatively you can of course simply edit ''.bashrc'' using your favorite editor and add a line like ''module load vmd cp2k/r18057_2017_09_18'' by yourself.
