Whether you're navigating file systems, scripting, or troubleshooting, knowing the "pwd" command will using the Linux command-line interface display the current working directory.

You can use the command to find out the path of the directory you are working in.

Important flags for the command are -P and -L

-P tells pwd to display the physical directory path, which means symbolic links are not resolved. Use it when you want to see the actual location of the directory without following symbolic links.

-L tells pwd to display the logical directory path, which means symbolic links are resolved.

By default, if you use pwd without any flags, it behaves as if you used -L, meaning it will show the logical path with symbolic links resolved.

The behavior of the pwd command can vary depending on the operating system and shell you are using, but these flags are generally available in most Unix-like systems.

You can find more on pwd command in the pwd man page.
