You can also do this just once per computer rather than per do file which needs
editing for each machine. Just set a global basedir in your profile.do and then
reference that global in your do files. You can even add in an alternate
default assignment in the do file if $basedir isn't defined on a machine.

I have a quasi-manual approach for this. Early in the do file, I have two
lines
local basedir c:/xxx/xxxx
local basedir f:/xxx/xxxx
Then, later in the file, I'll have a line like
cd `basedir'
So, whenever I move, I just comment out the non-relevant line at the top. I
still have to change something manually, but just in one place.
