Where is chdir?

Hello there,

I need the command 'chdir' for one of my scripts but it seems like the 'chdir' command is not available on my arch install.  Can somebody tell me wich package contains the 'chdir' command?

Thanks.

Hi, I dont think there is a stock chdir bash shell command. There is a 'chdir' 'C' system call (man chdir).

Probably you could use the bash 'cd' builtin, or if it should be doing something special, write a function.

Zsh does have a chdir command, but cd does the same thing.
