Bad style, sorry. Better:
source /sw/bin/init.sh && /sw/bin/xmms
that way, we're not relying on $PATH, there's no chance a malicious
attacker can place an executeable called xmms into $PATH before the
actual xmms, and lastly, the && will bail if anything goes wrong
(returns non-zero) while sourcing /sw/bin/init.sh.
The latter (init.sh) is dependent on $SHELL, btw.
