Hmm. I have no idea now why that eval's there. I must have thought I
needed it at some point (or I copied a pasted something I shouldn't
have), but things seem to work fine without it.
The eval might also explain why others were getting the "command not
found errors", but if so, I don't understand why I wasn't getting them
here too.
Thanks for pointing that out.
