Tip In the Directory Name field, you may enter absolute or relative (to the current working directory) path names. Below are a few examples assuming your current working directory is set to /wd .

Example 1
Entering sampleDir would set the working directory to /wd/sampleDir . The directory sampleDir must exist in order for this to work.

Example 2
Entering subdir/sampleDir would change the working directory to /wd/subDir/sampleDir . All the directories must exist.

Example 3
Entering /temp/sampleDir would change the working directory to /temp/sampleDir .
