==name cd

==short-description

Change the current working directory.

==long-description

Note, C<cd> can be used to navigate between drives (eg C<cd e:\>), but the DOS approach of switching between drives with commands like C<c:> and C<e:> is also supported.

The current working directory is stored in the environment variable C<PWD>, but you should use the cd command rather than updating this variable directly.

==argument filename directory

The directory to change to.
