CD(1) CD(1)
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.
