indir is in S16 but not documented elsewhere, but it's a really cool
feature that I think many people will find useful. It's certainly much
more convenient
indir '/Users/brian', {
put "Directory is $*CWD";
}
indir '/etc', {
put "Directory is $*CWD";
}
The second one fails with
Failed to change the working directory to '/etc': did not pass 'd r w' test
I don't know why it insists that the directory be writable, expecially
when chdir itself is not as strict. I often change to a directory where
I want to merely read files, so I'd like to see the test relaxed.
And, since its undocumented, nobody else knows that it does this currently. :)
