Subject: Convert absolute paths to relative paths
Date: Fri, 19 Apr 2002 07:49:48 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <545ofgfaowz.fsf@icd.teradyne.com> (raw)
Greetings -
Can anyone show me some nifty zsh hackery to convert a string
representing an absolute path into a relative path? For example, if
my current $PWD is "/opt/build" and the path I want to convert is
"/opt/src/perl-5.6.1", I would like the result to be
"../src/perl-5.6.1".
Thanks in advance,
Vin Shelton
