autojump

Authored by

Here’s a tip that can really speed up your navigation between directories on your command line. Install autojump. As you navigate to directories via cd, autojump will make a database of the directories you visit frequently. You can then just use part of the directory name to jump to that directory. For instance, using the j alias for autojump:

$ j juxtapose
...www/wp-content/themes/vip/acme-plugins/juxtapose
$ j mu-plugins
...vip-quickstart/www/wp-content/mu-plugins
$ j foo
...www/wp-content/themes/vip/acme-foo
