pwd (abbreviazione dalla lingua inglese di print working directory, stampa la directory corrente) è un comando dei sistemi operativi Unix e Unix-like,
|
||
|
|
e più in generale dei sistemi POSIX, che mostra sullo standard output il pathname assoluto della directory corrente.
|
||
|
|
Since a command line interface cannot provide graphic pictures of the file system structure, it must have a different way of representing it.
|
||
|
|
Think of the file system tree as a maze, and you are standing in it. At any given moment, you are located in a single directory.
|
||
|
|
Inside that directory, you can see its files and the pathway to its parent directory and the pathways to the subdirectories of the directory in which you are standing.
|
||
|
|
<br><br>
|
||
|
|
The directory you are standing in is called the working directory. To find the name of the working directory, use the pwd command.
|
||
|

<h2> description </h2>
|
||
|
|
<p> The pwd utility writes the absolute pathname of the current working
|
||
|
|
directory to the standard output.
|
||
|
|
Some shells may provide a builtin pwd command which is similar or identical to this utility. </p>

-L Display the logical current working directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
-P Display the physical current working directory (all symbolic
|
||
|
|
links resolved).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If no options are specified, the -L option is assumed.</p>
