Bug Description

I was surprised to discover that 'cd..' command which i have used in the past, now is unknown.

cd. & cd.. features are so simple to use, to step back one level or two, i can't imagine they have been dropped by decisions. Please set them back.

oem@u64:~$ cd /var/
oem@u64:/var$ cd lib
oem@u64:/var/lib$ cd.
