Or even one character shorter, (plus no need to create a script, put it in the path and make it executable) :-) svn mkdir $Z/new-project{,trunk,tags,branches} where Z is an environment variable in your .profile (or .bash_profile) Z=svn+ssh://svn.zope.org/repos/main export Z or .login for C shell users setenv Z svn+ssh://svn.zope.org/repos/main Do we need to put a disclaimer that for the shortcut shown above the shell needs to support brace expansion -- the output of ``set -o`` should have ``braceexpand on``. Most of the modern Bourne-derived shells do have it and it's on by default. The C shell has always had it AFAIK. A user could switch it off in both shell kinds. I guess that would be too much detail. :-) _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
