It works:
: root; fn cd {builtin cd $* ; prompt=(': '`{pwd}^'; ' ' ')}
: root; cd
: /usr/a; cd /tmp
: /tmp;
If you’re still having trouble, paste a transcript like that, so we can see what’s going on.
Note also that spaces in file names will screw up the easy version of this. If you’re on a filesystem that likes such things, you might instead want something like this:
: /Library/Desktop; pwd
/Library/Desktop Pictures
: /Library/Desktop; fn cd {builtin cd $* ; cwd=`{pwd} ; prompt=(': '$"cwd^'; ' ' ')}
: /Library/Desktop; cd .
: /Library/Desktop Pictures;
