Moving to Directory on startup.

[thetrue_dv]

Hello!

I like to organise my scripts into folders, that's pretty common...

What I'd like to do is basically run

Code Select Expand

cd <foldername> upon startup, so I don't have to manually do it every time I break the turtle to move it. How do I go about doing that?

There is an API for changing the current directory of the shell, calling it with the right argument in a startup file will do what you want.

Just to confirm:
"shell.setDir("/rom")"?

It works, but working doesn't always mean the best way

[Lupus590]

Yep. The other way would be to shell.run to the cd program but it's considered bad practice to use shell.run like that.

Awesome, thanks!
