}Not really, again when you put this into a file it will change your
}directory but after the filescript finishes you'll discover
}that you are again in the original directory.
}Of course you could alias it in csh.
}But now some real answer from a guru please! Is it really impossible
}to change your working dir with a shell script _and_ to remain there
}after it is finished? I don't know how to do it. Please inform.

Why do you wnant to do it in a shell script?????????
Try using the CDPATH (or cdpath for csh junkies) variable.
