Directory Manipulations about script

[bitfield]

Thanks for the issue @CSenshi! A couple of very interesting ideas there.

Could you give a short example program showing you would like to use these functions in script, supposing they were provided?

[CSenshi]

1. cd:
   script.ChangeDir("/home/guest") - it would change your working directory to "/home/guest"

2. pwd:
   script.pwd().stdout() - would print out your current working directory (e.g. after executing above command it would output "/home/guest")

P.S. I haven't yet thought about name of functions, so ChangeDir() and pwd() would do for now

But we already have os.Chdir() and os.Getwd(), don't we? What value would this add to that?

[CSenshi]

oh okay, I know that they are in os library, I thought you might want it in your script library as well. But as for now I Can see there is no real need for chdir, but pwd would be nice in script library because of pipes. There can be case where someone wants to do some operation on pwd-s output afterwards.

P.S. I would love to contribute to this project, because I think it has potential. I would like to hear If you have any other suggestions.

No problem, you're most welcome to contribute, and keep making suggestions! I'll close this for now, but keep the ideas coming.
