Working Directory (HOST command)

The HOST command starts in the current working directory. By default, the initial working directory is the installation directory. So, for example, HOST COMMAND=[’dir’] executed at the start of a session would typically return a directory listing of the installation directory. The working directory can be changed, however, by the CD command and the CD keyword of the INSERT command.

Example

*start of session.
HOST COMMAND=[’dir’]. /*lists contents of install directory.
CD ’c:\temp’.
HOST COMMAND=[’dir’]. /*lists contents of c:\temp directory.
