.Sh NAME

|
.Nd return working directory name
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm pwd
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm Pwd
|
|
writes the absolute pathname of the current working directory to
|
|
the standard output.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Some shells may provide a builtin
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command which is similar or identical to this utility.
|
|
Consult the
|
|
.Xr builtin 1
|
|
manual page.
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
|
|
.Sh STANDARDS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility is expected to be
|
|
.St -p1003.2
|
|
compatible.
|
|
.Sh SEE ALSO
|
|
.Xr builtin 1 ,
|
|
.Xr cd 1 ,

.Xr getcwd 3 ,
|
|
.Xr sh 1
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
In
|
|
.Xr csh 1
|
|
the command
|
|
.Ic 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.
