Navigate Efficiently To Your Most Used Directories With Autojump

Autojump is “a cd command that learns”.

I use to visit a small number of directories on daily basis. For example, every time I want to visit my studies directory I used to type:

cd ~/Studies/Winter2009/

With autojump, I just need to type:

j Win

And hit the [tab] key (It supports auto-completion).

The autojump command becomes smarter over time, to see its current status one can type:

jumpstat

Installation is easy, you just need to run a bash script (explanation in the above website).

To see its help, type:

man autojump
