    -cd

    Set the current directory.

    Syntax

    -cd directory

    Description

    This is a highly atypical command. It is operated upon immediately as soon as it is encountered and then it is thrown away.

    By putting a -cd directory option near the start of your Merge command line, you may be able to save having to specify the same path for several other command-line options.

    At any rate, it establishes the current directory for the Merge operation. Note that $B is unaffected by this and will remain constant throughout as the directory that was the current directory when the Merge executable was run.
