> I put it in a file called "checker" and, when I need it, ./checker
What I usually do is create a script called ".go" somewhere above it, and I have a ~/bin/go that locates it and runs it. I use this all over the place, so I'm used to just typing "go" or "go <arg>" to DTRT. #!/usr/bin/perl # -*- perl -*- $me = `pwd`; $me =~ s/[\r\n]+$//; $ENV{'GOPWD'} = $me; while ($me =~ m@/[^/]*/[^/]+$@ && ! -f "$me/.go") { $me =~ s@(/[^/]*)/[^/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@; } chdir ($me) or die "chdir: $!"; if ( ! -f "./.go") { print STDERR "no .go to go to!\n"; exit(1); } exec ("./.go", @ARGV) or die "exec: $!";
