How can I add a load path before running a script?

[merulus]

The NU_LIB_DIRS set in the environment doesn't seem to be read?

I tried:

export NU_LIB_DIRS=/path/to/lib
nu script.nu

but it cannot find the modules under /path/to/lib

iirc, nu -l script.nu will load both the env.nu and the config.nu.

This requires a separate config file, which is inconvenient.
And I need to dynamically add a path that is unknown until runtime.

if you look at nu --help you can find the following argument:

  -I, --include-path <String> - set the NU_LIB_DIRS for the given script (delimited by char record_sep (''))

[merulus]

This only works with -c, --commands, not scripts. Or did I miss something?

in nu 0.92.1 it just says script, which i assumed to include a script attached as argument.

but after testing it i agree that it dosn't work. it actually dosn't work at all for me:

$ "print $env.NU_LIB_DIRS" | save -r b.nu

$ nu b.nu
