I think so... So, in order to get my cd command, I enter '-' at the rc prompt? Is there some way for that to happen automatically? On June 27, 2015 8:34:24 AM CDT, Neven Sajko wrote: >From the manual: > > -l If -l is given or the first character of argument >

It works: : root; fn cd {builtin cd $* ; prompt=(': '`{pwd}^'; ' '')} : root; cd : /usr/a; cd /tmp : /tmp; If you’re still having trouble, paste a transcript like that, so we can see what’s going on. Note also that spaces in file names will screw up the

Coming from a bash world, I really like knowing what directory I'm in at the prompt. I tried putting this at the end of 'lib/profile': fn cd{ builtin cd $1 prompt=('{pwd}^'% ' '') } cd $HOME However, it doesn't work! The 'cd' command seems to do what it normally does. The prompt
