Well, I'm copying Python's massive Documentation Department on this <wink>.

os.chdir is directly linked to from the index, under "directory, changing".
That's not a terribly unlikely place to look for it, either <wink>.

However, it's documented in section 6.1.1 (Process Parameters) instead of in
section 6.1.4 (Files and Directories).  That does seem off; I'd move chdir
and getcwd from the former to the latter; yes, "the current directory" is a
process concept, but it's more directly "a directory".
