My question: Is there a way that I can put this path in a file, then execute a shell that will place me in that directory? I tried a couple of things, but to no avail. One puts me there for a breif moment, but "pwd" tells me I never left my current directory. I would greatly appreciate any Helpful answers. Thanks, John Dalton.
