Hello newsgroup,

I'm tantalizingly close to having the gcc/gfortran install on a memory
stick that I want. This basic how-to for this I took from Jmaes van
Buskirk in c.l.fortran. One detail catches, namely, that I'm not
starting in the directory I want to.

Thunderbird is only letting me paste this in as a quote (sorry):

So, no matter what I try, I always start in just F:.

The "start in" value is taken from the properties of the shortcut. How
do I fix it?

TIA

I am not 100% sure I understand but if I got it right, you may want to
add "/D" to the "cd" command. It changes the current drive in addition
to the directory.

Like this?

%cd/D:~0,2%\gcc_eq32\source\

I was thinking about his..
cd %cd:~0,2%\gcc_eq32

and adding that switch..

cd /D %cd:~0,2%\gcc_eq32

Seems like you have it on the same line as you set LIBRARY_PATH as well
(or at least it appears like it to me).
If you intend to do this..
cd %cd:~0,2%\gcc_eq32\source\
... then you can add the /D switch there as well. :)

You can forget about the last thingy I said in my previous post. I
realized it is the working directory set on a shortcut like you said.
Maybe there's still something to it by adding /D after "cd" like in my
previous post?
