.SH NAME
autojump \- a faster way to navigate your filesystem
.SH SYNOPSIS
.\" Syntax goes here. 
.B j 
dirspec
.P
.B jstat
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B 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 
.B 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:
.P
.B j
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.
.SH EXAMPLES
.B j
mp3
.P
could jump to /home/gwb/my\ mp3\ collection, if that is the directory in which you keep your mp3s.
.P
.B jstat
.P
will print out something in the lines of:
.P
54.5:	/home/shared/musique
.P
60.0:	/home/joel/workspace/coolstuff/glandu
.P
83.0:	/home/joel/workspace/abs_user/autojump
.P
97.9:	/home/joel/workspace/autojump
.P
141.8:	/home/joel/workspace/vv
.P
161.7:	/home/joel
.P
Total key weight: 1079
.P
The "key weight" reflects the amount of time you spend in a directory.
