For instance, using csh, alias cd to do 'source .exitdir; cd \!* ; source .enterdir' , and use the shell scripts called .enterdir and .exitdir to do directory specific initializations. ***dan [ Since I'm taking sides on this, I'm going to post my comments as a followup by jsq instead of notes by the moderator. -mod ] {allegra,astrovax,princeton}!fisher!djl The misplaced (That car sure is rusty!)
