Revision history [back]

I don't think you need to replace pwd in the command you referred to. On Ubuntu (and other Linux I assume), surrounded by buckquote "`" symbol, the output of command is filled in.

So if you follow the tutorial line-by-line, you should be at ~/image_transport_ws/, which pwd command will return and that's what the tutorial you linked to expects.
