NAME
cd - change working directory
SYNOPSIS
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, cd would be ineffective if it were written as a normal command. It is therefore recognized and executed by the Shell.
