Shell Directory Manager 0.9

Shell Directory Manager is a small tool for managing often-visited directories using a shell like bash. I offer two new commands: dm is a manager for a small database, where you name directories with a short alias. And dmcd is a function for your current shell, which lets you go to a directory given its alias in the database. Example of use: $ dm 1 /tmp # Adds the id 1 for /tmp $ dm bla . # Adds the id bla for the current dir $ dmcd 1 # Goes to /tmp $ dmcd bla # Goes to what was your current dir $ dm -d bla # Deletes the entry for bla. $ dm # Shows your database 1 /tmp $ dm -h # Shows help, and defines dmcd for sh. Installation: Its a script in bash - dont look for any special filename extension. Put the downloaded dm in your path. Install the dmcd function. dm -h may give you a clue. For instance, for bash, add the following line into your .bashrc or .bash_profile (or any system wide script for each session): function dmcd { dm -t $1 && cd `dm $1`; }.
