Windows shell command to get the full path to the current directory?

Question

Is there a Windows command line command that I can use to get the full path to the current working directory?

Also, how can I store this path inside a variable used

Answer 1

@echo off
for /f "usebackq tokens=*" %%x in (`chdir`) do set var=%%x
echo The currenct directory is: %var%

But, of course, gmaran23's answer is the much easier one.
