Message-ID: <26756@adm.brl.mil> Date: 2 May 91 20:37:18 GMT Sender: news@adm.brl.mil Lines: 13 Hi, I would like to know if there is a way of executing an object program (the sourc e is in C) without creating a new shell. The program must change the current directory and maintain this new directory after finishing execution. On the normal run, after execution it changes back to the previous directory. It would function something like Norton's NCD for PC. By the way, I am working under System V. Thanks for your attention prolo
