Shellmarks - Bookmarking for directories

shellmarks.sh

# Utilities for quickly accessing frequently used directories in zsh/bash.

# Usage: 
#   $ cd /path/to/project/src/
#   $ mark code     # Will create a new shortcut. 
#                   # Becomes interactive if a shortcut already exists
#                   # m is an alias for mark. You can also `m code`
#
#   $ code          # From now on, running this anywhere in the shell 
#                   # will put you in /path/to/project/src/code
#
#   $ unmark code   # Will remove the symlink and is interactive
#                   # u is an alias for unmark. You can also `u code`
