Pwd

The pwd command (print working directory) is used to print the name of current working directory. It is found in the Unix family of operating systems and other flavors as well. The DOS equivalent is "cd" with no arguments.

It is a command which is sometimes included built into certain shells such as sh, and bash. It can be implemented easily with the POSIX C functions getcwd() and/or getwd().
