pwd

pwd(1)								   User Commands							    pwd(1)

NAME

       pwd - return working directory name

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/pwd

DESCRIPTION

       The pwd utility writes an absolute path name of the current working directory to standard output.

       Both the Bourne shell, sh(1), and the Korn shells, ksh(1) and ksh93(1), also have a built-in pwd command.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       See  environ(5)	for  descriptions  of the following environment variables that affect the execution of pwd: LANG, LC_ALL, LC_MESSAGES, and
       NLSPATH.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0     Successful completion.

       >0    An error occurred.

       If an error is detected, output will not be written to standard output, a diagnostic message will be written to	standard  error,  and  the
       exit status will not be	0.

ATTRIBUTES

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |      ATTRIBUTE TYPE	     |	    ATTRIBUTE VALUE	   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |Availability		     |SUNWcsu			   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |CSI			     |Enabled			   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |Interface Stability	     |Committed 		   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |Standard		     |See standards(5). 	   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+

SEE ALSO

       cd(1), ksh(1), ksh93(1), sh(1), shell_builtins(1), attributes(5), environ(5), standards(5)

DIAGNOSTICS

       ``Cannot open ..'' and ``Read error in ..'' indicate possible file system trouble and should be referred to a UNIX system administrator.

NOTES

       If  you move the current directory or one above it,  pwd may not give the correct response. Use the  cd(1) command with a full path name to
       correct this situation.
