@@ -81,13 +81,39 @@ To activate or source an environment, use the ``fzirob change_environment
 ENV_NAME`` command. This command sources the appropriate setup scripts of the
 environment depending on its contents.
 
+
 You can use tab completion on the environments so typing ``fzirob
 change_environment`` and then pressing :kbd:`Tab` should list all environments
 present.
 
 Executing ``fzirob change_environment`` without any environment specified will
 source the most recently sourced environment.
 
+.. note::
+
+   Using ``fzirob change_environment`` will reset your shell environment before sourcing a
+   ``robot_folders`` environment. Specifically, the following variables will be reset to the state
+   they have been at the point when robot_folders was sourced (the ``rob_folders_source.sh`` file,
+   usually sourced in the ``~/.bashrc`` file).
+
+   * ``CMAKE_PATH``

+Adding custom source commands
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

+In addition to the environment's workspace setup files, each environment contains a
+``setup_local.sh`` file that will get sourced during the ``change_environment`` call after the
+workspaces in an environment have been sourced.
