Jumping Up the Directory Tree with bck()

The bck() function allows you to move up multiple directory levels in a single command, simplifying navigation in deep directory structures.

Sample Usage

• Jump up the path tree

  • Current Directory: /home/user/projects/my_project/src/components
  • Command: bck 3
  • New Directory: /home/user/projects/my_project

  This command moves you up three directory levels from a deeply nested location in your project back to the project root.

Directory Bookmarks with bokmark and bok

The bookmark system comprises two functions: bokmark for creating bookmarks to directories and bok for navigating to those bookmarked directories. This system is particularly useful for quickly accessing frequently used directories.

Creating Bookmarks (please see bokmarks_usage.md)

1. Navigate to the directory you wish to bookmark and use bokmark to create a bookmark:

   cd /home/user/projects/project1
   bokmark proj
   cd /home/user/projects/project2
   bokmark proj
   cd /home/user/projects/project3
   bokmark proj

Navigating to Bookmarked Directories

• Use bok followed by the bookmark name to navigate. If the bookmark contains multiple paths, you will be prompted to select one:

  bok proj

  Output:

  Multiple paths found for proj:
  1: /home/user/projects/project1
  2: /home/user/projects/project2
  3: /home/user/projects/project3
  Enter number to navigate:
  

• Example: Entering 2 navigates you to /home/user/projects/project2.
