The problem is that you're doing two separate shell calls, each one
evaluated based on the current folder (which is Rev's Home folder). You need
to make a single shell call that does both tasks. For Mac, that means
separating them by semicolons:
put shell("cd /;ls")
This will get a directory listing of the root drive. For Windows, you need
to use an ampersand instead of a semicolon, like this:
put shell("cd c:\ & dir")
