I'm trying to set up a couple packages for WPKG, and am running into the issue that I can't really control what the current directory is. Specifically, this is for the Ghostscript installer (setupgs.exe) which expects to be run from the current directory.

In my scenario, the standard solution does not work because the directory only has a UNC path. For various reasons, I can't map a drive letter for it. And that means that I can't use cmd.exe to change directory. The Ghostscript installer itself can handle a UNC path as the current directory.

Are there any alternate solutions that would work with UNC paths?


I'm not sure what you mean by "can't map a drive letter for it".

Instead of "Net use ...", I use "pushd [UNC-Path]" which either fails
(errorlevel >= 1) or puts you straight in the right directory of a newly
mapped drive. So you don't have to care about drive letters.

See "help pushd" for more details.

Bye, Kai
