autojump \- a faster way to navigate your filesystem
.SHSYNOPSIS

.Bj

.P
.Bjstat
.SHDESCRIPTION
.Bautojump
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
.Bjstat
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:
.P
.Bj
dirspec
.P
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.
.SHEXAMPLES
.Bj
mp3
.P
could jump to /home/gwb/my\ mp3\ collection, if that is the directory in which you keep your mp3s.
