NAME

       cd - Change working directory

SYNOPSIS

       cd ?dirName?
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       Change the current working directory to dirName, or to the home directory (as specified in the HOME environment variable) if dirName is not
       given.  Returns an empty string.  Note that the current working directory is a per-process resource; the cd  command  changes  the  working
       directory for all interpreters and (in a threaded environment) all threads.

EXAMPLES

       Change to the home directory of the user fred:
	      cd ~fred

       Change to the directory lib that is a sibling directory of the current one:
	      cd ../lib

NAME

     pwd -- return working directory name

SYNOPSIS

     pwd [-LP]

DESCRIPTION

     The pwd utility writes the absolute pathname of the current working directory to the standard output.

     Some shells may provide a builtin pwd command which is similar or identical to this utility.  Consult the builtin(1) manual page.

     The options are as follows:

     -L      Display the logical current working directory.

     -P      Display the physical current working directory (all symbolic links resolved).

     If no options are specified, the -P option is assumed.

ENVIRONMENT

     Environment variables used by pwd:

     PWD  Logical current working directory.

DIAGNOSTICS

     The pwd utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

STANDARDS

     The pwd utility conforms to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'').

SEE ALSO

BUGS

     In csh(1) the command dirs is always faster because it is built into that shell.  However, it can give a different answer in the rare case
     that the current directory or a containing directory was moved after the shell descended into it.

     The -L option does not work unless the PWD environment variable is exported by the shell.
