pwdOf course, while you're listing the contents of directories hither and yon, you might find yourself confused about just where you are in the file system. How can you tell in which directory you're currently working? The answer is the pwd command, which stands for print working directory. Note The word print in print working directory means "print to the screen," not "send to printer." The pwd command displays the full, absolute path of the current, or working, directory. It's not something you'll use all the time, but it can be incredibly handy when you get a bit discombobulated. $ pwd /home/scott/music/new |
