+<h1> The <tt>cd</tt> program </h1>
+
+<p>
+<tt>cd</tt> changes the current working directory to a
+given directory, then executes a program.
+</p>
+
+<h2> Interface </h2>
+
+<pre>
+ cd <em>dir</em> <em>prog...</em>
+</pre>
+
+<p>
+<tt>cd</tt> performs a
+<a href="http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/chdir.html">chdir()</a>
+system call on <em>dir</em>, then execs into <em>prog...</em>.
+</p>
+
+<h2> Notes </h2>
+
+<p>
+<tt>cd</tt> is a standard shell builtin. Be careful if you want to
+use the <tt>cd</tt> command outside of an <tt>execline</tt> script.
