mhm... I think you are right. Infact, in windows, CD command cannot change
dir directly from a drive to another one (but change directly in "hide"
mode...):

make this test:

C: > CD D:\TEMP
C: > D:
D:\temp >

as you can see, to change a drive, in windows I must type the drive letter
(without CD command) but CD command functioned! Infact, after I run CD
command I don't see anything, but if I type drive letter, I discover that my
current directory is the directory given to CD command!

Sometimes DOS & Windows are very funny....


bye!

I wouldn't expect it to work in windows console / dos box either. For
example, I tried to do CD in a dos box (console session under NT) and got
this message:

... is an invalid current directory path.  UNC paths are not supported.
Defaulting to Windows directory.

Maybe change-dir depends on an OS current directory.

I was searching in mailing-list how to manage network-shared dirs
(e.g.: \\computername\dir\file.ext).

The answer was the following:

%/computername/path/file.ext

Ok... it functions. But why does not function the following code?

change-dir %/computername/path/
