NAME

pwd - print name of current/working directory  

SYNOPSIS

pwd
pwd {--help,--version}  

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents the GNU version of pwd. pwd prints the fully resolved name of the current directory. That is, all components of the printed name will be actual directory names -- none will be symbolic links.

Note that most Unix shells provide a built-in pwd command with similar functionality so the unadorned, interactive pwd command will usually execute the built-in version and not this one.  

OPTIONS

--help
Print a usage message on standard output and exit successfully.
--version
Print version information on standard output then exit successfully.
