pwd or currdir
in [Matlab]

From: CyberFrog on 30 Jun 2010 06:10 Hi, How can I best use pwd or currdir when accessing compiled software from outside the local location of the exec? i.e. exec=/a/b/c/d/mysoftware/exec the user launches this using abs path from another locatin i.e. myloc=/a/b/f/g/h/j/mylocdir I now would like to know where the user is using pwd or currdir but everytime it gives location of software instead and not myloc?? Thanks

What is "currdir"? PWD is eactly the same as "CD" (look inside the code...). You want to know, if the user is using pwd or currdir - when or where? What "it" gives location of which software? And what does it mean, if "it" "gives myloc"? Kind regards, Jan

Right, forget the word currdir now its PWD I need and also this software is compiled code so the user can access this from anywhere on the system. However, when the PWD command is used it always gives the path to where the software lives but this is not what I want to achieve. I wish to know where the user is launching or calling this from? i.e. myloc where the user is not where the software is.

I wish to know where the user is launching or calling this from? i.e. myloc where the user is not where the software is. well... this seems to indicate that the software does a CD to where it lives... otherwise, CD would show the callers location... note: use CD rather than PWD, which is a mere wrapper for CD... type pwd; us
