NAME
     pwd - print working directory name

SYNOPSIS
     pwd

     /usr/bin/pwd

DESCRIPTION
     pwd prints the path name of the working (current) directory.  pwd is both
     an explicit command (invoked as /usr/bin/pwd), as well as a builtin
     command to each shell (invoked as pwd).


FILES
     /usr/lib/locale/locale/LCMESSAGES/uxcore.abi
          language-specific message file [See LANG on environ(5).]

SEE ALSO
     cd(1), csh(1), sh(1), getcwd(3C)

DIAGNOSTICS
     UX:pwd:ERROR: cannot open ...
     UX:pwd:ERROR: read error in ...

indicate possible file system trouble and should be referred to a UNIX
system administrator.
NOTES
If you move the current directory or one above it, pwd may not give the
correct response. Use the cd(1) command with a full path name to correct
this situation.
