So long as no |:lcd| or |:tcd| command has been used, all windows share the
same current directory. Using a command to jump to another window doesn't
change anything for the current directory.
When a |:lcd| command has been used for a window, the specified directory
becomes the current directory for that window. Windows where the |:lcd|
command has not been used stick to the global current directory. When jumping
to another window the current directory will become the last specified local

used.

When a |:tcd| command has been used for a tab page, the specified directory

The current directory of other tab pages is not affected. When jumping to

the global current directory is used.
When a |:cd| command is used, the current window and tab page will lose the

After using |:cd| the full path name will be used for reading and writing
files. On some networked file systems this may cause problems. The result of
