Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : bd Version : 1.0 Upstream Author : Vigneshwaran Raveendran <vigneshwaran2...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/vigneshwaranr/bd * License : MIT Programming Lang: sh Description : Quickly go back to a specific parent directory
Quickly go back to a specific parent directory in linux instead of typing "cd ../../.." redundantly. If you are in this path /home/user/project/src/org/main/site/utils/file/reader/whatever and you want to go to site directory quickly, then just type: bd site In fact, You can simply type bd <starting few letters> like bd s or bd si If there are more than one directories with same name up in the hierarchy, bd will take you to the closest. (Not considering the immediate parent.) Using bd within backticks (`bd <letter(s)>`) prints out the path without changing the current directory. You can take advantage of that by combining `bd <letter(s)>` with other commands such as ls, ln, echo, zip, tar etc.. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
