Execute Command upon changing to a specific directory

[Joe Caverly]

When I change to my E:\Utils directory, I usually do a directory listing of files modified in the last day.

I have automated this with the following alias;

alias cd_enter=`if %1 eq e:\utils dir e:\utils /[d-0]`

Reference to CD_Enter: ALIAS command - create new command names

Posting mainly for my future reference, but thought others might also be interested in this tip.

I should put this into my cd-alias.bat

I usually just make my aliases call a bat file, keeps things more clean for me personally

I have it store the # of files and then when you change out, if it's changed, it tells you what %age of files you got rid of (or grew).
