How can a script know where in the acme directories
(/mnt/acme/*) the script runs?

I would like to write a Putcmd script which Put the
current window and invokes a specified command.

you could also make a Put that was echo put >/mnt/acme/$winid/ctl
and then use Put; mk.  arguably having to write Put in this case is a bug.

Thanks.  My acme was so old that it didn't export winid.
Then Putcmd is *so* trivial.  You can execute "Putcmd mk".

#!/bin/rc
echo put > /mnt/acme/$winid/ctl
