Shell Directory Manager Description

Shell Directory Manager is a small tool for managing often-visited directories using a shell like bash. Shell Directory Manager is a small tool for managing often-visited directories using a shell like bash.I offer two new commands: dm is a manager for a small database, where you name directories with a short alias. And dmcd is a function for your current shell, which lets you go to a directory given its alias in the database.Example of use:$ dm 1 /tmp # Adds the id '1' for /tmp$ dm bla . # Adds the id 'bla' for the current dir$ dmcd 1 # Goes to /tmp$ dmcd bla # Goes to what was your current dir$ dm -d bla # Deletes the entry for 'bla'.$ dm # Shows your 'database'1 /tmp$ dm -h # Shows help, and defines 'dmcd' for sh.Installation:It's a script in bash - don't look for any special filename extension. Put the downloaded dm in your path.Install the dmcd function. dm -h may give you a clue. For instance, for bash, add the following line into your .bashrc or .bash_profile (or any system wide script for each session):function dmcd { dm -t $1 && cd `dm $1`; }
