CD(1)               UNIX Programmer's Manual                CD(1)

NAME
     cd - change working directory

SYNOPSIS
     cd directory

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

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

SEE ALSO
     csh(1), pwd(1), sh(1), chdir(2)
