- Setd and mark are two utilities useful for enhancing the change
- directory built in. Setd allow change directories using marks,
- environment variables, or a built in queue.
-
- Mark is used to generate the translation list from directory
- marks to full pathnames.
-
- 1) Please read the man pages which come with the distribution
- nroff -t -man setd.1 | more <== to view
- nroff -t -man mark.1 | more
- psroff -man setd.1 <== to print
- psroff -man mark.1
-
- 2) Modify Makefile to have OFLAG reflect the type of machine you are
- on. SUN, HP, IBM, etcetera. These two programs have been run on
- Sparcs, HPs, IBM RS/6000s, Solbournes, and Sun 3s. It doesn't require
- anything special installed. Therefore if you are using a machine other
- than these, it will take little or no effort to get this to compile in
- any flavour of UNIX.
-
- Also modify places to copy the files, put the man pages, etcetera.
-
- 3) type make copy to copy to the /usr/bin area and to the man area.
-
- 4) Remember to set the environment variables MARK_DIR and SETD_DIR
-
