NAME

cd - change working directory  

SYNOPSIS

cd directory  

DESCRIPTION

Directory becomes the new working directory. The process must have execute (search) permission in directory.

Because a new process is created to execute each command, cd would be ineffective if it were written as a normal command. It is therefore recognized and executed by the Shell.  

SEE ALSO

sh(1), pwd(1), chdir(2)
