tory (as specified in the HOME environment variable) if dirName is not
given. Returns an empty string. Note that the current working direc-
tory is a per-process resource; the cd command changes the working di-
rectory for all interpreters and (in a threaded environment) all
threads.

cd ~fred
Change to the directory lib that is a sibling directory of the current
one:
cd ../lib
