You could try the -e (--eval) option to change the default-directory. For example you could use this function: cd is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `files.el'. (cd DIR) Make DIR become the current buffer's default directory. If your environment includes a `CDPATH' variable, try each one of that list of directories (separated by occurrences of `path-separator') when resolving a relative directory name. The path separator is colon in GNU and GNU-like systems. Please note that if you put this in a shell script, you would need to use the quoting correct since parentheses are special characters in every shell I'm aware of. Hope this helps, -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.
