Question

Okay so I am running a simple command like this:

find / -name ssh | grep bin

the output of that is this:

/usr/bin/ssh

Now I want to make it look like this for when I cd to it

/usr/bin/

I can’t figure out how to make it smart because I can brute force it to work only for this one, but what about when I want to run this same code on a different machine and the location of ssh is elsewhere.

Answer 1

Don’t you want this?

cd $(dirname $(which ssh));
