How to ensure .zshrc is already sourced before running autoenv commands?

[AndydeCleyre]

Related to #2 -- here's some trouble I have with the ordering of events:

• I have autoenv files which run functions defined in my ~/.zshrc
• I am in a folder with such an autoenv configuration
• I open a new tmux pane in the current path:

  % tmux bind l new-window -c "#{pane_current_path}"

• Autoenv tries to run those functions, but they are not yet defined

---

It looks like it's the last line of the plugin, calling _autoenv_chpwd_handler at the time the plugin is sourced.

So I guess that means I can work around this by loading this plugin after I define the things it'll need.

I wonder though if it might make sense to temporarily add the function to a different hook, then remove it. Yup, that seems to work. I'll submit a PR.

Oh, well my initial attempt breaks something:

 Activate autoenv in the subshell.

 "autounstash" should handle the exported variables.

   $ $TESTSHELL -c "$TEST_SOURCE_AUTOENV; cd ..; echo \${MYVAR:-empty}; echo \$MYEXPORT"

But you can have a look at what I did:

For now I'm settled on

. . . loading this plugin after I define the things it'll need.

And that may be the last best answer, and that works for me.
