# The net result is that whenever you open a new terminal, you'll be in your current working project's directory.

add this to your .bashrc

alias wo='work_on'
alias wol='work_on list'
alias wop='work_on project'

# Projects
export_project () { export $1=$2; }
export_project foo $HOME/Projects/foo
export_project bar $HOME/Projects/bar
current_project=$foo
cd $current_project

put this in your bin directory: work_on

# Define set project function
set_project () { sed -i '' "s/current_project=\$.*$/current_project=\$$1/" ~/.bashrc; }

case "${1:-''}" in
  'list')
    grep export_project ~/.bashrc | grep -v "export_project ()" | cut -d' ' -f2
