| cwd |
cwd
Gets the current working directory. This is the safest way to get it.
| fastcwd |
fastcwd
A faster way to get the directory, but somewhat more dangerous because of the way it works internally.
| getcwd |
getcwd
Does the same thing as cwd by reimplementing the C library functions getcwd(3) or getwd(3) in Perl.
