System.chdir3kaya

Usage

Overview

Change the current working directory to another directory. The directory path given can be relative or absolute.

// currently in /home/me/working
chdir("sub"); // now in /home/me/working/sub
chdir("../../.."); // now in /home
chdir("/tmp"); // now in /tmp

The function behaves in a similar fashion on Windows

// currently in C:\kaya\programs
chdir("sub"); // now in C:\kaya\programs\sub
chdir("..\\.."); // now in C:\kaya
chdir("\\Program Files"); // now in C:\Program Files
chdir("F:\\data"); // now in F:\data

Note the need to escape the backslashes used as a path separator.
