Thanks Folks for your Patience (sorry for my quick posts)

echo is most inconsitent thing. There is a SYSV3 variable on Unix which tends to change the behaviour of echo command or shell-builtin.

i am sorry, i just forget that i have mentioned this question in my other thread which actually started with another question

Hi All,

I have got an echo statement with "\c" in it to avoid getting into a newline. Ths script is using #!\bin\sh

cur=`pwd`
path=`dirname $0`
cd $path
echo "`pwd`"
cd $cur

hey vino thnx man, u guided my thirsty soul. the following works for me


#!/bin/bash

base=${0%/*}
current=`pwd`

cd $base

cd $current

no it doesnt work
