NAME                                                     CHDIR(I)
     chdir - change working directory

SYNOPSIS
     chdir directory
     cd	directory

DESCRIPTION
     Directory becomes the new working	directory.   The  process
     must have execute (search)	permission in directory.

     Because a new process is created to  execute  each	 command,
     chdir  would  be  ineffective if it were written as a normal
     command.  It is therefore recognized  and	executed  by  the
     Shell.

     Cd	is a synonym for chdir and acts	identically.
