Hi Ken,
fyi. for debian there is an env-modules package but for "wheezy" (testing) as opposed to "squeeze" (stable). My colleague Hyacinthe applied his debian packaging incantations and produced a .deb which does the task.
Also, this page from NASA seems to be instructions on how to get it working on macosx: https://modelingguru.nasa.gov/docs/DOC-2015
The words of Stijn now come to mind... rewriting modules in python... that might make sense after all, since the other solutions may have too many external dependencies and take some time, too.
to be continued,
fotis
TACC lmod has a lua only version. so if lua is supported, should be easy to get modules working. (easybuuild still needs to getaround working with lmod, but that's probably easy to do)
someone should play with eg http://pypi.python.org/pypi/lupa/ insteadd of porting it (althoug prorting the lmod to python should be staright forwardish)
Follow up on this, wheezy is now stable, and has environment modules in it. It is allso available in ubuntu starint with 12.10 (sadly not the 12.04LTS)
Some platforms (e.g. OS X, Debian (?)) don't have packaged support for environment modules and its dependencies (e.g., Tcl).
We should look into adding support to EasyBuild for building+installing environment modules and its dependencies, in some kind of module-less mode.
