                             CHDIR COMMAND

Purpose: Changes current DOS directory of the mentioned or current disk
         drive or displays the current path of a disk directory.

Syntax:  CHDIR [d:][path]
         or
         CD [d:][path]

Type:    Internal command

Parameters:

[d:]   - defines a drive, the current directory of which should be changed
         or viewed.
[path] - defines the path to the required directory (the path_name can not
         be longer than 63 characters).

     If a drive name is not mentioned, the current one is assumed. The
CHDIR command without parameters displays the current drive.

Examples:
1. Changing the current directory of a floppy disk to the root one:

        A:\DOS>CHDIR \

2. Displaying the current directory of the A: drive:

        A:\DOS>CHDIR

   The screen will display:   A:\DOS

3. Changing the current directory of the B: drive to \dir1\dir2:

        A:\>CD b:\dir1\dir2

4. Changing the current directory of the B: drive to a path extended by
   the dir3 directory:

        A:\>CD b:dir3

WARNING! The real name of a directory may be hidden by ASSIGN, SUBST and
         JOIN commands. The following example illustrates how one may work
         with the C: drive, when the A: drive is the current one:

         A:\>JOIN C: A:\CDRIVE
         A:\>CD \CDRIVE
