OK, but since not everyone is born knowing what '~' means (think
Windows users), I would suggest a small correction:

  The 'cd' command now defaults to using '~' (the home directory) if
  not given an argument.

>  @kindex cd
>  @cindex change working directory
>  @item cd @var{directory}

As Jan points out, the DIRECTORY part is now optional, which we
express by [...].  So:

  @item cd @r{[}@var{directory}@r{]}

(The @r{} parts are needed to countermand the default @code formatting
of the @item line.)

> -Set the @value{GDBN} working directory to @var{directory}.
> +Set the @value{GDBN} working directory to @var{directory}.  If given no
> +arguments, uses '~'.

"~" is a file name, so please use @file{~} instead of quoting it.

Also, I would replace the last sentence with

  If not given, @var{directory} defaults to @file{~}.

OK with those changes.

Thanks.
