WD (WORKING_DIRECTORY) -- Set or display the current working directory.
usage:  WD [pathname]


FORMAT

  WD [pathname]


  WD  sets  the  working  directory  for  the  current  process to the specified
  directory.  The working directory is where the system looks for  objects  when
  you don't explicitly specify a directory as a part of a pathname.


ARGUMENTS

  pathname
  (optional)         Specify new working directory.  This may be a derived name,
                     but  must  point  to  a  directory  or link to a directory.
                     Specifying a file will cause an error.

                     Default if omitted:  display current working directory.


EXAMPLES

  $ wd //fred/jtj             Set new working directory.
  $ wd                        Display the new setting.
  //fred/jtj
  $ wd stuff/revised          Set new working directory using derived name.
  $ wd                        Display the new setting.
  //fred/jtj/stuff/revised
