Hi all, My brain cell ran away from home. I have an incredibly simple script that doesn't do what I expect. I use "mkdir DIR; cd DIR" a lot so I'm trying to put it in a script: "~/bin/mdcd".

I'm not sure why this doesn't work but you're doing it the hard way. mkdir -p $1 cd $1 is much simpler, and might work better. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
