indir is in S16 but not documented elsewhere, but it's a really cool feature that I think many people will find useful. It's certainly much more convenient indir '/Users/brian', { put "Directory is $*CWD"; } indir '/etc', { put "Directory is $*CWD"; } The second one fails with Failed to change the working directory to '/etc': did not pass 'd r w' test I don't know why it insists that the directory be writable, expecially when chdir itself is not as strict. I often change to a directory where I want to merely read files, so I'd like to see the test relaxed. And, since its undocumented, nobody else knows that it does this currently. :)
