@deffn {Command} cd dir\n\
@deffnx {Command} chdir dir\n\
Change the current working directory to @var{dir}. If @var{dir} is\n\
omitted, the current directory is changed to the user's home\n\
directory. For example,\n\
\n\
@example\n\
cd ~/octave\n\
@end example\n\
\n\
@noindent\n\
Changes the current working directory to @file{~/octave}. If the\n\
directory does not exist, an error message is printed and the working\n\
directory is not changed.\n\

Given an array of strings (as a char array or a cell array) in\n\
@var{pattern}, return a cell array of file names that match any of\n\
them, or an empty cell array if no patterns match. Tilde expansion\n\
is performed on each of the patterns before looking for matching file\n\
names. For example,\n\
\n\
@example\n\
@group\n\
glob (\"/vm*\")\n\

Return 1 or zero for each element of @var{string} that matches any of\n\
the elements of the string array @var{pattern}, using the rules of\n\
filename pattern matching. For example,\n\
\n\
@example\n\
@group\n\
fnmatch (\"a*b\", @{\"ab\"; \"axyzb\"; \"xyzab\"@})\n\

Return the system-dependent character used to separate directory names.\n\
\n\
If 'all' is given, the function return all valid file separators in\n\
the form of a string. The list of file separators is system-dependent.\n\
It is / (forward slash) under UNIX or Mac OS X, / and \\ (forward and\n\
backward slashes) under Windows.\n\
