NAME

pwd, pbd - working directory

SYNOPSIS

pwd
pbd

DESCRIPTION

Pwd prints the path name of the working (current) directory. Pwd is guaranteed to return the same path that was used to enter the directory. If, however, the name space has changed, or directory names have been changed, this path name may no longer be valid. (See fd2path(2) for a description of pwd's mechanism.)

Pbd prints the base name of the working (current) directory. It prints no final newline and is intended for applications such as constructing shell prompts.
