| Hi,
I want to run a script, I can only access the directory names listed
above (ie. in the sudo list), but I don't know which directory contains
the script (Please do not delve into the PATH variable, as this is not
what I'm after). So, what I'm after is to find out if a one liner (not
multiple lines, I've already coded this) is possible, that runs the
given script name in directories
dir1 or dir2 or dir2/subdir2
Note: f1 resides in dir2/subdir2/ and fd1 resides in dir1/
# ok, dir2/subdir2/f1 exists
>+(dir1|dir2)/*(subdir2)/f1
test file
# not ok, but dir1/f1 does exist - so why doesn't this work?
# I would have thought that this pattern is the same as
# dir1//f1, which works when executing ls dir1//f1
>+(dir1|dir2)/*(subdir1)/f1
ksh: +(dir1|dir2)/*(subdir1)/f1: not found.
# Now, this works (without slash), but it won't for file
# +(dir1|dir2)/*(subdir1)f1
>+(dir1|dir2)/*(subdir2)fd1
test file in dir 1
Regards,
Michael
