Re: [9fans] Trying to override 'cd' command
From the manual: -l If -l is given or the first character of argument zero is -, rc reads commands from $home/lib/profile, if it exists, before reading its normal input. Does this help you?
Re: [9fans] Trying to override 'cd' command
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?

Re: [9fans] Trying to override 'cd' command
Finally booted up Plan 9 again. Indeed, the function works when placed in the shell, but *not in lib/profile*. I'm putting in $HOME/lib/profile. That's the correct location, right?

Re: [9fans] Trying to override 'cd' command
I added it to the end of lib/profile.

Thanks for replying! Unfortunately, that doesn't change anything.
Still
stuck at the 'term% ' prompt.

However, it doesn't work! The 'cd' command seems to do what it

Re: [9fans] Trying to override 'cd' command
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 easy version of this. If
you’re on a filesystem that likes such things, you might instead want something
like this:
: /Library/Desktop; pwd
/Library/Desktop Pictures
: /Library/Desktop; fn cd {builtin cd $* ; cwd=`{pwd} ; prompt=(':
'$cwd^'; ' '')}
: /Library/Desktop; cd .
: /Library/Desktop Pictures;
