       integer*4 function chdir (dirname)
       character*(*) dirname

       dirname.	 Zero is returned if successful; an error code otherwise.

       Path  names  cannot  be	longer	 than	MAXPATHLEN   as	  defined   in
       <sys/param.h>.

       Use of this function may cause inquire by unit to fail.

       Certain	FORTRAN	 file  operations  reopen  files by name.  Using chdir
       while doing I/O may cause the runtime system to	lose  track  of	 files
       created	with  relative path names, including those files that are cre‐
       ated by open statements without file names.
