Ehud
I've tried the approach with the ".bashrc" file, but it creates other
problems. When I've the "set -x" still set for tracing I can see that it
loads the "shell" FOREVER, repeatedly. It never exits the load... statement.
It looks like the ".bashrc" file is the solution, but I also probably, need
to make some changes in my ".emacs" and the "/etc/profile" files. However
I'm not sure where and what.
I believe that at this point I'll invoke the perl explicitly with the full
path when I use it in the emacs sub-shell.
Thanks again for your help.
Roman

OK. That clarify the situation. I assumed INCORRECTLY that you run the
perl directly from your Emacs (not in sub-shell). In your case bash
executes ~/.bashrc, So if it does not exist create it and add the line:
source /etc/profile
That should solve your problems.
You should keep the (setenv "Bash_ENV" "/etc/profile") for commands
executed directly from Emacs (like shell-command [M-!] or compilation).
Ehud.
