Absolutely nothing is wrong with shell variables

Nothing is wrong with shell-variables. They don't need special versions of cp, mv and cd, either.

They can also be used in other commands that are not aware of CDargs.

I have written something about how to do it here:
<a href="http://linuxbasics.org/tutorials/advanced/realworld/directory-bookmarks" title="linuxbasics.org">http://linuxbasics.org/tutorials/advanced/realwor<nobr>l<wbr></nobr> d/directory-bookmarks</a linuxbasics.org>

Even with a nice way to automatically add the current directory to the list.
