Hello,
do you know a possibility to set the actual directory inside a Perl script
(chdir my_dir;) to get it changed in the command shell outside the
script?
setDir.pl:
# some code to set $MyDir
chdir $MyDir;
exit 0;
Command line:
setDir.pl
Regards,
Martin

Hello,
thats not exactly the behaviour I wanted

Subject: RE: Setting the actual directory with a Perl script.
That took a bit of thinking...Three lines:
#!perl -w
$chdir = c:\\winnt; #or whatever code you
want to pick a directory
system(start /B direct.bat $chdir); #go to that directory
Sometimes it's easier to lean
