SYNOPSIS

     /usr/bin/pwd

DESCRIPTION

     The pwd utility writes an absolute path name of the  current
     working directory to standard output.

     Both the Bourne shell, sh(1), and the  Korn  shell,  ksh(1),
     also have a built-in pwd command.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

     variables  that  affect  the execution of pwd: LANG, LC_ALL,
     LC_MESSAGES, and NLSPATH.

EXIT STATUS

     The following exit values are returned:

     0     Successful completion.

     >0    An error occurred.

     If an error is detected, output will not be written to stan-
     dard  output,  a diagnostic message will be written to stan-
     dard error, and the exit status will not be  0.

DIAGNOSTICS

     ``Cannot open ..'' and ``Read error in ..'' indicate  possi-
     ble  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.
