. Changing Working Directory - cd, pwd .
[ Previous | Index | Next ]
Tcl also supports commands to change and display the current working directory.
These are:
- cd ?dirName?
- Changes the current directory to dirName (if dirName is given, or to the $HOME directory if dirName is not given. If dirname is a tilde (~, cd changes the working directory to the users home directory. If dirName starts with a tilde, then the rest of the characters are treated as a login id, and cd changes the working directory to that user's $HOME.
- pwd
- Returns the current directory.

puts "[format "%-15s %-20s " "FILE" "DIRECTORY"]"
foreach dir $dirs {

set c_files [glob -nocomplain c*]
foreach name $c_files {
puts "[format "%-15s %-20s " $name [pwd]]"
