It can indeed, I was assuming that you needed an automatic way to work it out. A few questions, if I may:-
  • What shell are you using? (the output from echo $SHELL would be fine)
  • What OS version are you using? (the output from uname -a would be very useful here)
  • What have you tried?
I ask the last question because it is better for us to know your style and adjust it rather than to impose a solution that you cannot understand or support.

Please post all code, files, input & output/errors in CODE tags. It makes it far easier to read.



Kind regards,
Robin
