This does not happen + in historical implementations of pwd. Because pwd is + frequently used in historical shell scripts without + checking the exit status, it is important that the his- + torical behavior is required here; therefore, the CONSE- + QUENCES OF ERRORS section specifically disallows any + partial output being written to standard output. + +FUTURE DIRECTIONS + None. + +SEE ALSO + cd , the System Interfaces volume of + IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, getcwd() + +COPYRIGHT + Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in + electronic form from IEEE Std 1003.1, 2003 Edition, + Standard for Information Technology -- Portable Operat- + ing System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base Speci- + fications Issue 6, Copyright (C) 2001-2003 by the Insti- + tute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and + The Open Group.
