cd -- Command

Change directory
cd directory

The  shell keeps  track of  the directory  in which  the user  is currently
working.  If a  command is not specified by a  complete path name beginning
with  `/', the  shell prefixes  it  with the  name of  the current  working
directory.  cd  changes the current  working directory to  directory. If no
directory  is specified,  the directory  named  in the  $HOME environmental
variable becomes the current working directory.
