NAME
chdir - change working directory
SYNOPSIS
chdir directory
DESCRIPTION
Directory becomes the new working directory. The process
must have execute permission on the 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.
