Csh - how to combine multiple commands in one line
Hey everyone,
I am working in an environment where the different users can use ksh or csh. My situation is that I need the same result with one single command line.
I am searching for the real path the file is in.
My ksh input and output
My csh input and output
It seems that csh does not support such "fancy" things as combining multiple commands in one line.
I already tried the following calls
with just two commadns combined it seems to be working.
Can anyone help?

Hi There,
I have a cronjob that executes a small script (few lines) that I am certain can be achieved in a single line.
The functional objective is actually really simple;
cmd var1
The '1' in 'var1' is actually derived from date (day of month) but the snag is when working with 1-9 I... (3 Replies)
I am experimenting with some scripting as a way to learn more about it. I have a simple script that calls two other scripts. Each script echos some stuff to prove it ran and then sets a simple variable and exports it.
I cannot get one of the variables to display back in the main calling script... (2 Replies)

pwd
PWD(1) BSD General Commands Manual PWD(1)NAME
pwd -- return working directory name
SYNOPSIS
pwd [-LP]
DESCRIPTION
The pwd utility writes the absolute pathname of the current working directory to the standard output.
Some shells may provide a builtin pwd command which is similar or identical to this utility. Consult the builtin(1) manual page.
The options are as follows:
-L Display the logical current working directory.
-P Display the physical current working directory (all symbolic links resolved).
If no options are specified, the -P option is assumed.
ENVIRONMENT
Environment variables used by pwd:
PWD Logical current working directory.
DIAGNOSTICS
The pwd utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
STANDARDS
The pwd utility conforms to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'').
SEE ALSO builtin(1), cd(1), csh(1), sh(1), getcwd(3)BUGS
In csh(1) the command dirs is always faster because it is built into that shell. However, it can give a different answer in the rare case
that the current directory or a containing directory was moved after the shell descended into it.
The -L option does not work unless the PWD environment variable is exported by the shell.
