+popd [ -q ] [ {+|-}n ]
+ Remove an entry from the directory stack, and perform a cd to
+ the new top directory. With no argument, the current top entry
+ is removed. An argument of the form `+n' identifies a stack en-
+ try by counting from the left of the list shown by the dirs com-
+ mand, starting with zero. An argument of the form -n counts
+ from the right. If the PUSHD_MINUS option is set, the meanings
+ of `+' and `-' in this context are swapped.
+
+ If the -q (quiet) option is specified, the hook function chpwd
+ and the functions in the array $chpwd_functions are not called,
+ and the new directory stack is not printed. This is useful for
+ calls to popd that do not change the environment seen by an in-
+ teractive user.
