Pwd script

when user types "pwd.sh joe" at command line, it generates pwd as abc123 and when user types "pwd.sh jane" at command line, it generates pwd as abc123.

pwd will change every 90 days.

my pwd file will be always abc123 until i change joe/jane/bob pwd manually.

NAME
pwd - Return the absolute path of the current working directory SYNOPSIS
pwd _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION
Returns the absolute path name of the current working directory. EXAMPLE
Sometimes it is useful to change to a known directory when running some external command using exec, but it is important to keep the appli- cation usually running in the directory that it was started in (unless the user specifies otherwise) since that minimizes user confusion. The way to do this is to save the current directory while the external command is being run: set tarFile [file normalize somefile.tar] set savedDir [pwd] cd /tmp exec tar -xf $tarFile cd $savedDir SEE ALSO
file(3tcl), cd(3tcl), glob(3tcl), filename(3tcl) KEYWORDS
working directory Tcl pwd(3tcl)
