One more thing, for the line: 

exec rio -f $font -i lib/script

make sure $font is correctly set or the exec of rio will fail.  You
can use that variable to set a different default font for rio if you like.

Since you can run rio in a regular window, test the command out that
way before you put it in your profile.

Best,
Peter
