My customized mark/jump plugin (~/.oh-my-zsh/plugins/jump/jump.plugin.zsh)

About

Mark a directory with "m example" then return to that dir from any terminal with "j example". Useful if you work in projects with a deeply nested directory tree.

"um example" to unmark it

with tab completion. and you can use "j" (no arg) to list marks

Installation

  1. Add jump to your plugins in ~/.zshrc
  2. Overwrite ~/.oh-my-zsh/plugins/jump/jump.plugin.zsh with the attached file.
# Easily jump around the file system by manually adding marks
# marks are stored as symbolic links in the directory $MARKPATH (default $HOME/.marks)
#
# jump FOO: jump to a mark named FOO
# mark FOO: create a mark named FOO
# unmark FOO: delete a mark
# marks: lists all marks
#
export MARKPATH=$HOME/.marks
jump() {
# by default, just run marks
if [[ $# -eq 0 ]]; then
marks
return
fi
builtin cd -P "$MARKPATH/$1" 2>/dev/null || {echo "No such mark: $1"; return 1}
}
mark() {
if [[ $# -eq 0 || "$1" = "." ]]; then
MARK=${PWD:t}
else
MARK="$1"
fi
command mkdir -p "$MARKPATH"
command ln -sfn "$PWD" "$MARKPATH/$MARK"
}
unmark() {
if [[ $# -eq 0 || "$1" = "." ]]; then
MARK=${PWD:t}
else
MARK="$1"
fi
LANG= command rm -f "$MARKPATH/$MARK"
}
marks() {
local link max=0
for link in $MARKPATH/{,.}*(@N); do
if [[ ${#link:t} -gt $max ]]; then
max=${#link:t}
fi
done
local printf_markname_template="$(printf -- "%%%us " "$max")"
for link in $MARKPATH/{,.}*(@N); do
local markname="$fg[cyan]${link:t}$reset_color"
local markpath="$fg[blue]$(readlink $link)$reset_color"
printf -- "$printf_markname_template" "$markname"

done
