. = current directory

.. = parent directory

Or even:

  puts Dir["*.rb"]

Like Open Directory?

Akthough this does work

    dir "c:/*.txt" /w/o/s/p

r/opendirectories

There is a subreddit for Open Directories!

Huh?

This is precisely the struggle that I've been having to deal with lately. Though, does anyone know if this works with OpenDirectory?

I suppose this would be the more straightforward and expected behaviour:

    less: somedir: is a directory

thunderbong | karma 96016 | avg karma 7.63 · | 2021-04-22 08:31:35+00:00

  # create a directory in the current directory and cd to it

  function mkcd() { mkdir -p "$@" && eval cd "\"\$$#\""; }

Gratsby | karma 1217 | avg karma 7.03 · | 2016-03-05 10:41:24+00:00

    function dir(){
      #make the windows guy happy 
      find ./ -type f -name "$1"
    }

Why would you even want a working directory at that point?

Well, that's basically what directories are.

Noe2097 | karma 268 | avg karma 5.83 · | 2021-12-25 04:09:00

Hmmm. In Python, I would leverage the dedicated utility of the standard library:

  os.makedirs(path)

dreamdu5t | karma 1914 | avg karma 1.43 · | 2012-01-27 21:40:27+00:00

Directories that are based on objective criteria don't have this problem.

For example /dev is defined by objective criteria, and thus there's not much argument to what goes into /dev. We should only have core directory structure defined by objective criteria.

Thanks for sharing, I didn't know this directory!

TekMol | karma 9072 | avg karma 4.01 · | 2022-02-07 03:58:10

The dir structure is defined by me.

Namespaces are defined by the 3rd party developer.

An IDE should get access to the specific directory that contains the project, not everything.
