There are a ton of ways to do this, and none of the common ones involve python at all. <end-python-tutor-content> The wording "have my pi change to a directory" doesn't match how it works... each new shell is a new context, so you need to set things upon entering that context - namely after ssh establishes the connection and the Pi launches a login shell in response. Examples: On the Pi, in your .bashrc, stick a cd command at the end On the Pi, in your .bashrc define a short alias for the cd you want, so what you type is very short On the Pi, set the home directory of the account you are going to ssh into to be the directory On your host end, feed a command to ssh that includes doing something at the other end, along this model: ssh -t dj@pi 'cd /some/path && exec bash -l' _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
