(cd with no arguments does a pwd)

Not sure about your other questions. Perhaps someone else has ideas?

Separator - Windows is happy to use / rather than \ for path separators, 
just don't mix the two in the same path (things tend to go wrong if you 
do). I've definitely seen / work for windows paths (recent versions of 
Visual Studio specify the paths that way).
