Are you trying to do a string replacement on your path? As far as I
know, only the zsh implementation of cd supports a syntax like that.
(Which reminds me, I keep meaning to use zsh more -- it's so powerful
it's ridiculous.)<br>

I remember using cd in the following way.<br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">$pwd</span><br
style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">/this/is/the/folder/that/all/are/in/now</span><br>
<br>
The folder structure till the that is<br>
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">$ls
/this/is/the/folder/that/</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">all</span><br
style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">males</span><br
style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">females</span><br>
<br>
I was able to do this<br>
<br>
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">$cd all males</span><br
style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">$pwd</span><br
style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">/this/is/the/folder/that/males/are/in/now</span><br
style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">$cd males females</span><br
style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">/this/is/the/folder/that/females/are/in/now</span><br>
<br>
I cant seem to find that command now.<br>
<br>
Anyone knows how to do this or where to find this.<br>
(bash or ksh is fine too)<br>
