DESCRIPTION

13       The  explain_chdir_or_die  function is used to call the chdir(2) system
14       call.  On failure an explanation will be printed  to  stderr,  obtained
15       from  explain_chdir(3),  and  then  the  process  terminates by calling
16       exit(EXIT_FAILURE).
17
18       This function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to  the  fol‐
19       lowing example:
20              explain_chdir_or_die(pathname);
21
22       pathname
23               The  pathname,  exactly  as to be passed to the chdir(2) system
24               call.
25
26       Returns:
27               This function only returns on success.  On failure,  prints  an
28               explanation and exits.
