Re: [PD] [shell] on OSX...

Hi IOhannes,

what you are sending to [shell] basically _is_ a shellscript...

Ah, OK, now I see. I've been doing it the way you suggested, and as I reported it's painfully slow. Several degrees of ten times slower than the same commandline entered into an open terminal. Or even that opening a new terminal and then entering the command. I thought maybe there would be a way to make it faster.

if it get's more complicated just do it like this

#!/bin/sh cd /home/derek mkdir test_$1

and call your script with [/path/to/myscript.sh $1(

So simple bash scripts can use $1 as well? That was what I was unsure about. I thought there was other syntax to introduce variables into them that I *didn't* know.

best, d.
