[slurm-users] Using "Environment Modules" in a SLURM script

[Peter Kjellström]

On our slurm clusters the module system (Lmod) works without extra init
in job scripts due to the environment-forwarding in slurm. "module" in
the submitting context (in bash) on the login node is an "exported"
function and as such makes it across.
