Comment by Wilson F on Why does "cd.." work in the Windows command line?

Tangent: I remember an old utility program called doskey which, when installed, added variations on DOS command prompts. The main one I miss is adding dots to the cd.. (or cd ..) command to substitute for higher directores. So, cd... was the equivalent of cd ..\.. (or cd..\..), cd.... was the equivalent of cd ..\..\.. etc. I haven't had doskey in a donkey's age, but I still sometimes try to type those commands.
