Is it possible to set an environment variable using a bash script and for that variable to be able to be seen within bash once the script is finnished.

I want to be able to set the path using a script so I can say :-

       ./gcc-3.4.3

calling a script simular to this :-

       ~~~~ gcc-3.4.3 ~~~~
       #! /bin/sh
       set PATH=/usr/gcc-3.4.3/bin:${PATH}
       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

which will then set the path from then on.

Hope you can help,

Aaron
