6.2.8 The lcd and lpwd commands: changing the local working directory

As well as having a working directory on the remote server, PSFTP also has a working directory on your local machine (just like any other Windows process). This is the default local directory that other commands will operate on. For example, if you type get filename.dat then PSFTP will save the resulting file as filename.dat in your local working directory.

To change your local working directory, use the lcd command. To display your current local working directory, type lpwd.
