macOS no longer recognizes environment.plist I need to set up environment variables for Pixar RenderMan Pro Server in macOS 10.13. 

Yosemite, El Capitan, Sierra and High Sierra no longer recognize environment.plist located in a hidden .MacOSX directory:

&lt;plist version="1.0"&gt;
    &lt;dict&gt;
        &lt;key&gt;DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH&lt;/key&gt; 
        &lt;string&gt;/Applications/Pixar/RenderManProServer-21.5/lib&lt;/string&gt; 
        &lt;key&gt;RMANTREE&lt;/key&gt;
        &lt;string&gt;/Applications/Pixar/RenderManProServer-21.5&lt;/string&gt; 
    &lt;/dict&gt;
&lt;/plist&gt;


At the present time I'm using .bash_profile to set up environment variables:

echo RenderManProServer environment variables are set...

export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Applications/Pixar/RenderManProServer-21.5/lib/
export RMANTREE=/Applications/Pixar/RenderManProServer-21.5/



  What else methods besides the described above allow Mac user to set up environment variables in macOS High Sierra?
If you are looking for a system-wide setting, you can add a snippet to /etc/profile for all shells, or /etc/bashrc for just interactive Bash instances.
