A quick survey + among my friends revealed that between 10 and 20% of all + commands they type are actually cd commands! Unfortunately, + jumping from one part of your system to another with cd + requires to enter almost the full path, which isn’t very + practical and requires a lot of keystrokes. + + Autojump is a faster way to navigate your filesystem. It + works by maintaining a database of the directories you use the + most from the command line. The jstat command shows you the + current contents of the database. You need to work a little + bit before the database becomes useable. Once your database + is reasonably complete, you can “jump” to a directory by + typing "j dirspec", where dirspec is a few characters of the + directory you want to jump to. It will jump to the most used + directory whose name matches the pattern given in dirspec. + + Autojump supports tab-completion. + ''; + + homepage = http://wiki.github.com/joelthelion/autojump; + + license = "GPLv3+"; + }; + } |
