cd

Summary

Change the shell working directory.

Availability

  • Repository: opencomputers
  • System: openos
  • Type: command

Source

  • OpenComputers/src\main\resources\assets\opencomputers\loot\openos\bin\cd.lua
  • OpenComputers/src\main\resources\assets\opencomputers\loot\openos\usr\man\cd
  • OpenSecurity/src\main\resources\assets\opensecurity\lua\SecureOS\usr\man\cd

Syntax

cd [DIRECTORY]
cd -

Purpose

Update the current shell working directory used to resolve relative paths. Without an argument the command switches to HOME; with - it switches to OLDPWD and prints the resulting directory.

Parameters

  • DIRECTORY: Optional target directory. If omitted, use the path stored in HOME.

Options

  • --help: Print a short usage message.

Examples

cd /bin

Change the current working directory to /bin.

cd ../

Move from the current directory to its parent directory.

cd -

Jump back to the previous working directory stored in OLDPWD.

Notes

  • A missing HOME or OLDPWD environment variable causes the command to fail before path resolution starts.
  • On success the command updates OLDPWD to the directory that was active before the change.
