Re: tip: cd previous directory

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I just pushd, popd, dirs all the time.  'dirs -v' is very handy navigating the stack.  I
put and alias in ~/.bashrc:
alias dirs='dirs -v'

[0:root@c3po public_html]$ dirs
 0  /home/webmaster/public_html
 1  ~/config/apache
 2  ~/config/network
 3  ~/config/dhcp

To change to the 3rd directory, pushd +3

To remove the 2nd directory without changing the current directory, popd +2

Hi All,

I just discovered this.  To cd back to the previous directory

      cd  -

What a time saver!

-T

There is also a more powerful tool:

pushd DIR   cd to DIR and push olddir on a stack
popd       cd to the DIR on top of stack and removes it
dirs       list the stack

So you can do several "pushd" and go back trough them with popd
(each have options, look them up...)
