Zoxide is just the best! You miss it when you don't have it. And knowing that it probably won't be around forever makes me sad, just like with other useful but small projects.

@Sub0x-x40 13 часов назад

if everyone uses it, which alot of people do, it wont be going anywhere

@moussaadem7933 8 часов назад

It's extremely easy to implement, there are lots of projects with the same purpose. I could implement it using bash and a few standard tools in a day. It's the idea that's genius, the implementation is easy, there will always be a replacement

@no_name4796 9 часов назад

4:28 incorrect. If there are multiple possible directories zoxide can move you in, it doesn't go to the one you have been last, but the one with the highest score. And the score is just a number which basically is bigger the more you have been in that directory (actually the algorithm to calculate the score is a little more complex then that, but you can just think as 'high score'='you've been there a lot'

@BenjaminWheeler0510 10 часов назад

FYI `cd -` also moves you to the last location you were in.

@simonlauer9379 10 часов назад

initialising zoxide allows you to pass in -cmd cd flag. then zoxide runs via cd it’s in their documentation. a little cleaner than creating an alias this way cdi works as well just a hint 😊

@andreluiz9726 19 часов назад

At first, I was wondering if they could really improve something as simple as 'cd'. I mean, 'cd' just does what it does and that's that. But the 'ctrl+space' feature seems pretty useful. I guess I'll install it and try out the other features too...

@clashncruz 15 часов назад

You can also just type "tion" and it will bring you to documentation. You can even just type one letter and it will cycle through all directories with that letter. Very useful, great video Matt!

@RomanWeisman 17 часов назад

Good to know, thanks. This means less clicking sounds from my mechanical keyboard which I enjoy and not ready to depart from yet :)

@Xedualc 5 часов назад

I'm using zoxide since a few months (on Windows mind you, since I'm forced to used it at work) and it's been a life changer.

Good job Matt, you just convinced me to install yet another package on my machine. I didn't have to, but I did it anyway. FML... 😓

Ok, I need MORE utils like this! I just found eza and zsh-edit, and zoxide kind rounds it all up into a perfect shell experience

@gingered 18 часов назад

bind 'set completion-ignore-case on' ^ set case insensitive tab completion in .bashrc Neat program, though i dont think I'd use it. "Fuzzy" input leads to fuzzy output- garbage in, garbage out.

@torspedia 9 часов назад

Ta for the heads up on this. It's certainly something I am going to try out, as it looks rather useful. 🙂

@mmj5916 18 часов назад

You should use blesh with Bash, which for me works even better than zsh, and it almost always gusses the right directory to not need to use zoxide even though I have it installed.

@TheLinuxCast 18 часов назад

I did for a while, but it has some quirks that I didn't care for

@thedeester100 12 часов назад

Not for me. Maybe for some. Im a GUI right click "open in terminal". Half the time I cannot remember where I want to go. Its far less clicks than keystrokes. Each to their own.

Yeah nice little tool, similar to jump. Use it mainly to jump around in `nnn`

What about fzf's ctrl + t? It's basically the same thing but you 100% know which directory you're going to.

@AlexMatei454 7 часов назад

Great video! Personally, I prefer using zi command instead of z, it works better for me.

@RedbeardyMcGee 8 часов назад

30 seconds in, i got a gut feeling: Don't use an alias for `zoxide` to `cd`. Use `eval "$(zoxide init --cmd cd)"` or `source <

@MichaelButlerC 6 часов назад

why is this so hard to set up. I keep getting errors. I added eval "$(zoxide init --cmd cd zsh)" to my .zshrc file (after it complained that I also need to pass in and I'm still getting errors: -> % zoxide src/myproj error: unrecognized subcommand 'src/myproj Usage: zoxide For more information, try '--help'.

@MichaelButlerC 6 часов назад

Nevermind, Got it. solution was to add eval "$(zoxide init --cmd z zsh)" to my .zshrc file. That made the command "z" available to act like cd.

Hey Matt I am just curios if you're using I3 why not Sway? Ive heard you speak about your Desktop/WM woes before and like I said why not give Sway a try?

@007arek 14 часов назад

I prefer fasd because it also stores file paths.

@moetocafe 13 часов назад

Nice, but I don't need this. If I need to quickly jump through many folders, even ones that are not remembered - I have ranger for that. I have only 1 deep folder on a separate device, and I've made an alias to it, so it's super easy to jump there. Btw, "cd -" does exactly the same as "z -" : brings you back to the previous folder.

@ytbone9430 13 часов назад

Somewhat offtopic, but is there any technical or some kind of better usability reason for case sensitivity on Linux file systems at all? I find it quite useless and cumbersome, especially since desktop environments make use of "Downloads" folders with mixed case e.g. (what a nonsense!?). Linux downloads also come mixed case sometimes and then there are extensions like *.AppImage. Why on earth did people start using capital letters, when everything was lower case before? I would not mind, if the file system would be non-casesensitive by default, but since it's not, you combine two horrible concepts to create the worst experience possible, no? o)
