15.2.4 cd (Change Working Directory)

Description

Changes the working directory.

Synopsis

cd dirname

Option

dirname

Specify the name of a directory to which the current working directory is changed. The directory names on Windows can be also separated by a slash (/) in addition to the backslash (\). When using a backslash sign, the entire directory name must be enclosed in braces ({}) so as not to be treated as an escape character.

Caution

If a name of a non-existing directory is specified, the script is forced to exit upon detecting the occurrence of an exception.

Example

[Windows]

The following example moves the current directory to c:\tmp.

cd {c:\tmp}

[UNIX]

The following example moves the current directory to /var/tmp.

cd /var/tmp
