cdpath

Posted by: Administrator on November 08, 2005 08:23 AM
I just use bash's $CDPATH var for built in support for something similar. It's used like $PATH is for executables, only 'cd' checks this before you change directories:


<tt>

sith@sithtop:~$ export CDPATH=/home/sith/cvs/:/usr/src/

sith@sithtop:~$ cd myproject
<nobr> <wbr></nobr>/home/sith/cvs/myproject

sith@sithtop:~/cvs/myproject$ cd linux-`uname -r`
<nobr> <wbr></nobr>/usr/src/linux-2.6.11.12-grsec

sith@sithtop:/usr/src/linux-2.6.11.12-grsec$ pwd
<nobr> <wbr></nobr>/usr/src/linux-2.6.11.12-grsec

</tt>
