[scilab-Users] Default directory

[John Dey]

Hi list,

Well--things were working.  If I use the command "dir", the proper new default directory is printed.  But cd shows HOME.  cd . (that is a dot) shows the new default directory.  I'm all set!

I set the .scilab file by adding disp("Sample message") and added the cd command to the file to change the directory.  When I start scilab, the sample message prints but the directory doesn't change.
