+User Level Required: interpreter

+Command Syntax:
+
+ - )cd directory
+
+Command Description:
+
+This command sets the OpenAxiom working current directory. The current
+directory is used for looking for input files (for )read), OpenAxiom
+library source files (for )compile), saved history environment files
+(for )history )restore), compiled OpenAxiom library files (for
+)library), and files to edit (for )edit). It is also used for writing
+spool files (via )spool), writing history input files (via )history
+)write) and history environment files (via )history )save), and
+compiled OpenAxiom library files (via )compile).
+
+If issued with no argument, this command sets the OpenAxiom current
+directory to your home directory. If an argument is used, it must be a
+valid directory name. Except for the ``)'' at the beginning of the
+command, this has the same syntax as the operating system cd command.
