POPD - Restore the disk drive and directory

 
 Purpose:    Return to the disk drive and directory at the top of the 
             directory stack.. 
             
 Format:     POPD [*] 
 
 See also:  DIRS, PUSHD, and Directory Navigation. 
 Usage 
 Each time you use the PUSHD command, it saves the current disk drive and 
 directory on the internal directory stack.  POPD restores the last drive 
 and directory that was saved with PUSHD and removes that entry from the 
 stack.  You can use these commands together to change directories, 
 perform some work, and return to the starting drive and directory. 
 Directory changes made with POPD are recorded in the directory history 
 list and can be displayed in the directory history window.  See Directory 
 Navigation for complete details on this and other directory navigation 
 features. 
 This example saves and changes the current disk drive and directory with 
 PUSHD, and then restores it.  The current directory is shown in the 
 prompt: 

 
         [c:\] pushd d:\database\test
         [d:\database\test] pushd c:\wordp\memos
         [c:\wordp\memos] pushd a:\123
         [a:\123] popd
         [c:\wordp\memos] popd
         [d:\database\test] popd
         [c:\]
 
 
 You can use the DIRS command to see the complete list of saved drives and 
 directories (the directory stack). 
 The POPD command followed by an asterisk [*] clears the directory stack 
 without changing the current drive and directory. 
 If the directory on the top of the stack is not on the current drive, 
 POPD will switch to the drive and directory on the top of the stack 
 without changing the default directory on the current drive.
