4.12 Interfacing to the OS (‘cd’, ‘pwd’)

cd

Set working directory to directory for debugger and program being debugged. Tilde expansion, variable and filename expansion is performed on directory. If no directory is given, we print out the current directory which is really the same things as running pwd.

Note that gdb is a little different in that it performs tilde expansion but not filename or variable expansion and the directory argument is not optional as it is here.

pwd

Prints the working directory as the program sees things.
