zoxide has forever improved the way I navigate in the terminal. 

Thank you so much for the support! It means the world to me

cd dir1, ls, clear, cd dir2, clear ***

​@@lobotomy-victimI don't know why but I also do this

cd dir1/ *TAB TAB TAB TAB* mmmmh... dir2 enter

@@abdussomodadigun1760I do it because I feel cool when I do

I'm not even using ls to list the directory. 'ls' is the command of 'wait, let me gather my thoughts and decide what next'.

I had the exact same opinion when I started looking at zoxide!

Same here! And unfortunately I was just planning to watch this vid and move on. Now I'm focused on getting this installed before my next meeting!

absolutely the same thing here!

I ❤

​@@-morrownow that's the chosen one

I'm glad I'm not the only one.

I was using pushd and popd for that, but cd - is much better 🤯

​@@_RafaelKr the objective is different. With pushd, u get to a specific dir. With cd - , u get to the last dir

@@kumarraj197 Yes, but sometimes I used pushd to go to a specific dir and used popd to go back to the last directory. So if I only need that simple one-time-back-functionality cd - is the perfect fit. So the only advantage of pushd+popd is the stacking functionality but I rarely need that.

And today you will learn about CDPATH

Best comment. Hands down

a second one

@@sunofabeach9424 You can always try aliasing z to cd if u are still stuck on old habits.

alias z="zsh"

@@s1nistr433why would you create an alias for that

He have one more channel, 'dreams of code' It has way more than 3 videos , you will love it

You mean you'll never cd -

fzf?

​@@chotabomjvonychi3485ye, but I guess you can still use zoxide to change to the directory you're fzfing

Both of us were convinced!

how are you going up a directory? ex: cd ..? with the rebinding cd .. no longer works?

@@johnpulawski35 I type 'z' instead of 'cd' (haven't rebound). And since I use zsh, going up a directory is just two dots '..'

​@@johnpulawski35it actually does

He has another channel called Dreams of Code.

I relied on 4OS2 back in the day

4dos was awesome. I also used Norton CD aka ncd

4dos was great. Another feature I really liked was you could just add another . to go up another level. So cd .... instead of cd ../../.. (or ..\..\..)

Thank you for watching them! I'm glad people enjoy them

CDPATH is awesome. Combined with `set completion-ignore-case on`, fzf for Ctrl+R and possibly autocd you’d get a pretty sweet experience, even with good old bash. But these features are also available for zsh and others.

bash also offers CDPATH

Is there a eMacs integration?

@@st3ppenwolfjust use normal emacs bookmarks, much more sophisticated, u can literally bookmark arbitrary elisp functions (e.g. open up multiple buffers, paste ish in, run external procs, initialize ur death star, fire ur lazor)

100% the same!!

This comment an example of you looking back. Now you'll never again be able to say that about this channel honestly. The end of an era.

I'm sorry / not sorry 😅

Awesome! Thank you!

That tab key is just too close to capslock. Jk, I've rebound it 😆

​@@techtudei think he meant " ust idding"

Same, i even built a short script 'cdr' which also lists the most used dirs.

Yeah, fzf covers this while being a lot more utile

There's no tab completion if you're not specifying an actual path. Probably would be hard to make it useful given that a word could be any part of any path segment. But you don't need to type out full path segments so you don't really need completion. You can just type out any specific enough part. In essence, it's as if you did tab completion after every word but without actually having to do the completion. The only time where this doesn't work as well is if you have a lot of ambiguities with common prefixes and want partial completions. Personally, I still use regular cd when I'm navigating through the file system and don't yet exactly know where I'm going because zsh's completion list and fuzzy partial auto-complete are amazing and I wasn't able to get the latter to work with zoxide. But I use zoxide to jump to known places, especially all the different code repositories. They generally have unique enough names that I just need a few letters to specify the exact target so it's definitely much faster than doing a bunch of tab completions. And you can configure it so that regular cd still adds paths to the zoxide database.

@@1vader You've convinced me to give it a try. Thanks for the response. :-)

Thanks! I get all my wallpapers from freepik. This one is: Gradient landscape with torii gate in the water

@@dreamsofautonomy thanks! Already found it.

And you can install fzf and enable its plugin in your .zshrc to have the fzf feature

true and I had been using that but it gets slow with time because it’s mostly shell scripts, zoxide is faster with rust

"shopt -s autocd" in bash. Today I learned about ˜N for entries in dirstack, which I suppose may be handy. Most of the time I use screen.

you also don't even need to type the full path in zsh. /c/a/b/d will jump to the first match for those characters all the way down. same with fishshell though.

s/it's/its

Another terminal citizen! I welcome you.

@@dreamsofautonomy Update: tried it out. Game changing is an understatement.. Literally took all but 2 "cd's" in order for it to be able to jump straight from home into the base of a triple nested directory. It's actually insane! I appreciate the introduction!

what wm & status bars do you use?

@@hedonist2104 i3 and Polybar, however on my desktop I tend to just stay on KDE/Plasma since I already had it setup and looking good. Plus Kwin has maps for quick tiling that are not as good as a standalone wm, but it's good enough lol.

He have another channel as well Dreams of code

you can also just install fzf-marks and get a lot of the benefits of autojump commands without the problems from weights and a database.

It seems like I want fzf with "frency" weighting in general. 🤔
