NAME
       pawd - print automounter working directory

SYNOPSIS
       pawd [ path ...  ]

DESCRIPTION
       pawd is used to print the current working directory, adjusted to
       reflect proper paths that can be reused to go through the automounter
       for the shortest possible path.  In particular, the path printed back
       does not include any of Amd's local mount points.  Using them is
       unsafe, because Amd may unmount managed file systems from the mount
       points, and thus including them in paths may not always find the files
       within.

       Without any arguments, pawd will print the automounter adjusted current
       working directory.  With any number of arguments, it will print the
       adjusted path of each one of the arguments.
