+ (description "@code{File::pushd} does a temporary @code{chdir} that is
+easily and automatically reverted, similar to @code{pushd} in some Unix
+command shells. It works by creating an object that caches the original
+working directory. When the object is destroyed, the destructor calls
+@code{chdir} to revert to the original working directory. By storing the
+object in a lexical variable with a limited scope, this happens automatically
+at the end of the scope.")
