cd_ls_pwd.py

#!/usr/bin/env python

# Simulate the unix commands cd, ls, and pwd for non-Unix, non-iPython
# platforms (e.g. Pythonista for iOS)
# Recommended usage: $ python
#                  >>> import cd_ls_pwd     # import the three functions
#                  >>> cd = cd_ls_pwd.cd    # send up a top-level alias
#                  >>> ls = cd_ls_pwd.ls    # send up a top-level alias
#                  >>> pwd = cd_ls_pwd.pwd  # send up a top-level alias
# See '__main__' below for runtime usage examples
