1 The relative working directory
The R**elative **W**orking **D**irectory, captured in a function **rwd, is the current working directory with the user's HOME stripped from the leading portion of the directory name.
Its become necessary for me to remind myself of this, because a conventional practice is needed. For the moment, it seems that this means an empty argument if in the HOME directory and a leading slash in any sub-directory.
e.g.
$ cd ~/Dropbox $ rwd # returns "/Dropbox"
so any use of the rwd function in others relies on this leading slash.
