How about:
[currentdir] [parentdir] [topdir]
As much as I am a fan of UNIX, I don't think we need to build on odd UNIXisms here.
It's too long, IMO, even longer than "parentdir". Maybe [thisdir]?
I would rather go for one external with different messages, sort of like ix suggested. Like [current<, [top<, [parent<, [bang< would default to [top<. We could even let it accept additional float messages like 0 to get current, 1 to get parent, 2 to get "parent of parent" ... (Although I am not sure if this is of any use).
The name of the external could be something like "getdir", "directory", or hm,hm "folder" ?
