NAME

     pwd - return working directory name


SYNOPSIS

     pwd


DESCRIPTION

     pwd writes the absolute pathname of the current working directory to the
     standard output.

     The pwd utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.


STANDARDS

     The pwd utility is expected to be IEEE Std1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') compati-
     ble.


SEE ALSO

     cd(1),  csh(1),  getcwd(3)


BUGS

     In csh(1) the command dirs is always faster (although it can give a dif-
     ferent answer in the rare case that the current directory or a containing
     directory was moved after the shell descended into it).
