The print working directory command is a useful tool for navigating inside of the Terminal command window. It helps locate where you are in the current state of the directory. It is very easy when you are navigating through files and directories too quickly to lose your spot…kinda like your bookmark fe;l out and you can’t find the right page.

When in Terminal if at any time you get lost, just type pwd and press enter. It will respond with the “present working directory.” So, when you are moving files pwd is a great way to double-check your copy and move locations.
