[9fans] Q: cd 4 acme's 'win' window

[Peter A. Cejchan]

Hi,

could you tell me, please, how to redefine a 'cd' command to use with acme's 'win' window, i.e., it should modify the tag to show the current directory.

(Once I saw such a script somewhere, but I can't recall... :-(  )

TIA,
cheers,

Haven't used it so far but found the following in acme(1) :

          Awd loads the tag line of its window with the directory in
          which it's running, suffixed -label (default rc); it is
          intended to be executed by a cd function for use in win win-
          dows.  An example definition is
               fn cd { builtin cd $1 && awd $sysname }

Axel.

That's just what I was looking for (I browsed through the acme.ps, not
acme(1), though... :-(((
Thanks, Axel!
