Hi,
I often want to cd to a (DOS) path that I've copied from some Windows App.
The following function (put in one of your startup files .bashrc .profile etc)
saves a few clicks
and is forward or backslash proof
function cdp()
{
# cdp(aste)
# description : Cd to path in paste buffer: convert from DOS if required
# set -x
getclip
echo ''
getclip|sed 's#\\#\/#g'|putclip
cd $(getclip)
}
I can already see a few improvements, and it would also be nice to have a check
that paste buffer
actually contains a path
