About the windchill shell
The windchill shell brings up a new command shell, from the parent shell that is
setup for the Windchill environment. This includes setting all environment
variables defined in wt.env property in the wt.properties file.
To execute the windchill shell, at the command prompt enter the following
command:

When you are finished using the windchill shell, you can exit the shell and return
to the parent shell.
PTC recommends running all server-side Windchill applications, tools, and
utilities from the windchill shell. Also, you can use the windchill shell to set up
your development environment to use javac or Java directly.
