Subject: looking for a script to display current location in filesystem
Hi,
I'm currently trying to figure a way to display where I am in the
filesystem like in dos, but am having a hard time. Any assistance is
appreciated.
I am not 100% certain what you what but
To determine your current or present working directory enter --> pwd <CR>
To include your current working directory as part of your command line
prompt, I place the following in by .bash_profile,
BOLD() { tput smso ; }
BLINK() { tput blink ; }
OFF() { tput sgr0 ; }
NODENAME="`tput smso``tput blink`[`hostname`]`tput sgr0`"
PS1='${NODENAME}${PWD}>'
PS2='${PWD}>'
Therefore everytime I change directories by prompt changes accordingly.
Peter
