NAME

6       cd - change working directory
7

SYNOPSIS

9       cd directory
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Directory  becomes  the  new  working directory.  The process must have
13       execute (search) permission in directory.
14
15       Because a new process is created to execute each command, cd  would  be
16       ineffective  if  it  were written as a normal command.  It is therefore
17       recognized and executed by the Shell.
