You can use the pwd command by simply typing it into the terminal and pressing Enter. Here’s how to do it:
-
Open your terminal.
-
Type the following command:
pwd -
Press Enter.
The terminal will then display the full path of your current working directory. For example, you might see output like this:
/home/labex/project
Options
You can also use options with the pwd command:
-
Logical Path (
-L): This option shows the logical path, which is the path as it appears in the file system, including any symbolic links.pwd -L -
Physical Path (
-P): This option shows the physical path, which resolves any symbolic links to display the actual path.pwd -P
In most cases, if you are not in a directory with symbolic links, both -L and -P will give you the same output.
