@deftypefn Supplemental char* getcwd (char *@var{pathname}, int @var{len})

Copy the absolute pathname for the current working directory into
@var{pathname}, which is assumed to point to a buffer of at least
@var{len} bytes, and return a pointer to the buffer.  If the current
directory's path doesn't fit in @var{len} characters, the result is
@code{NULL} and @code{errno} is set.  If @var{pathname} is a null pointer,
@code{getcwd} will obtain @var{len} bytes of space using
@code{malloc}.
