Well, to be accurate PWD, whatever that is, is /, but I think it
ought not to be.
In the terminal:
[localhost:~] jd% PWD
PWD: Command not found.
[localhost:~] jd% pwd
/Users/jd
[localhost:~] jd%
Besides, if Applescript thinks my home directory is / , why does cd
take me to users/jd ? And why does the terminal not have pwd set and
Applescrips not have cwd set, and why does do shell script "set" give
me everything in upper case?
