A fancy little jumper script for bash. Easy keystroke access to frequent directories. jump/jp: go to a directory mark: make an alias unmark: delete an alias

jumpy.sh

# Fancy jump script

export MARKPATH=$HOME/.marks
function jump {
    cd -P $MARKPATH/$1 2> /dev/null || echo "No such mark: $1"
}
function jp {
    cd -P $MARKPATH/$1 2> /dev/null || echo "No such mark: $1"
}
function mark {
    mkdir -p $MARKPATH; ln -s $(pwd) $MARKPATH/$1
}
function unmark {
    rm -i $MARKPATH/$1
}
function marks {
    \ls -l $MARKPATH | tail -n +2 | sed 's/  / /g' | cut -d' ' -f9- | awk -F ' -> ' '{printf "%-10s -> %s\n", $1, $2}'
}

function _jump {
  local cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}
  local marks=$(find $MARKPATH -type l | awk -F '/' '{print $NF}')
  COMPREPLY=($(compgen -W '${marks[@]}' -- "$cur"))
  return 0
}
complete -o default -o nospace -F _jump jump

Would be nice if you give credit.

Instead of copy-pasting the jump function's code to jp, it could call jump like so:

function jp {
    jump $1
}
