try this:
./Pd
this is because, if there is no slash in the command name, Bash will look
at every directory in the colon-separated list called $PATH. Usually, "."
isn't in that list, and you have to add it yourself.
In DOS it's the other way around, the shell searches "." no matter whether
you like it or not, and you can't change its order of priority.
