retaining "link path" with pwd
Is there a way to retain the "link path" when I do pwd or cwd ?
for e.g. lets say, I do the following: cd /link1/link2/link3/folder4/ pwd I want to get back "/link1/link2/link3/folder4/" instead of /nfs/blah/blah/blah/blah/folder4/ Can this be done ? Mahurshi Akilla |

Try pwd -P -- jimmij |

As I recall, on Solaris there is a variable you can set to get the function you want. Look at the "symlink" variable as well. -- Sending unsolicited commercial e-mail to this account incurs a fee of $500 per message, and acknowledges the legality of this contract. |
