I am late into this thread, but why not walk before you can run...
As we have no idea what is in chxdir.sh nor the complete script that calls it we have to make wild guesses...
This is one way to get to change a directory on the fly from one script into another...
This is the script to be sourced, I have used the statement "source" instead of its shortcut "."...
The only proviso is you need to intitally know where both scripts are...
This is the master script...
Results of the experiment using OSX 10.14.1, default bash terminal...
Note I have initiated "NEWDIR" on both, not necessary but useful to keep track of used variables...
Now you know that it is possible transfer 'paths' give us your two scripts so that we can peruse them properly, unless you have some ultra-secret code you don't want making public.

Hello,
I'm pretty new to scripting and trying to do a simple (well, I thought so) administrator task. I'm using bash.
I want to create 10 directories under the one directory and apply permissions at the same time.

Howdy,
Puttering around in unix, and read this in the mkdir man page:
"The mkdir utility creates the directories named as operands..."
What does this mean, i.e. as operands?
Many thanks,
