Changing Directories

You can change what your working directory is using the cd command.

After the name of the command, you write the name of the directory you want to change in to.

$ pwd
/Users/emccue
$ cd Downloads
$ pwd
/Users/emccue/Downloads

If you want to go to a "parent" directory, you can write ... This means "one directory up".

$ pwd
/Users/emccue
$ cd ..
$ pwd
/Users
