Those are very useful functions. pushd does a cd and pushes where you
were onto the directory stack (the directory stack is just like any
other stack, i.e., last in , first out, but it holds directory names).
For instance, pretend I was in a really deep directory:
[ /usr/local/src/foo/frontend/handlers/methods/ ]
And I wanted to go somewhere else, but I didn't want to have to
retraverse that mess again:
pushd ~/stuff/wowie
I could be in there for a while, and when I was done, I'd do a popd,
which would return me to the place I started from.
