autojump - a faster way to navigate your filesystem
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
*Directories must be visited first before they can be jumped to.*
|
|
|
|
USAGE
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
`j` is a convenience wrapper function around `autojump`. Any option that can
|
|
be used with `autojump` can be used with `j` and vice versa.
|
|
|
|
- Jump To A Directory That Contains `foo`:
|
|
|
|
j foo
|
|
|
|
- Jump To A Child Directory:
|
|
|
|
Sometimes it's convenient to jump to a child directory (sub-directory of
|
|
current directory) rather than typing out the full name.
|
|
|
|
jc bar
|
|
|
|
- Open File Manager To Directories (instead of jumping):
|
|
|
|
Instead of jumping to a directory, you can open a file explorer window (Mac
|
|
Finder, Windows Explorer, GNOME Nautilus, etc.) to the directory instead.

|
Opening a file manager to a child directory is also supported:
|
|
|
|
jco images
|
|
|
|
- Using Multiple Arguments:
|
|
|
|
Let's assume the following database:
|
|
|
|
30 /home/user/mail/inbox
|
|
10 /home/user/work/inbox
|
|
|
|
`j in` would jump into /home/user/mail/inbox as the higher weighted
|
|
entry. However you can pass multiple arguments to autojump to prefer
|
|
a different entry. In the above example, `j w in` would then change
|
|
directory to /home/user/work/inbox.
