Re: Determinate the directory whithin a script



2006/6/18, Paolo Pantaleo <paolopantaleo@gmail.com>:
I have a script in something like

/media/sda1/backup/script.sh

since sda1 could be also sda2 or anything, I want to determintate at
run-time what is the directory in which the script is located, how can
I do?

pwd doesn't work, since I cuold call the script from some other direcotry

Thnx
PAolo

$0 is just the command line... maybe `pwd` + $0 could do the work...
but not if the scipt is in the PATH...

I can't use udev... but maybe I'll read something about it

Well for now I will assume that the script is launched only from
the directory in which it is located... it seems the easyer way.
