bcd is a way to cd to directories that have been bookmarked.

Installation

Homebrew

bcd is not currently in the Homebrew core repository yet, however you can easily add a tap for bcd first:

sh brew tap a1ecbr0wn/bcd

and then run the install:

sh brew install bcd

Run this command to set up your shell (bash or zsh):

sh bookmark-cd

and then restart your shell

Cargo

A simple way for fellow rust developers to install bcd is via the rust tool cargo:

bash cargo install bookmark-cd

Working on it... for any other package managers please raise an issue

Installation issues - Setup your environment

After your installation, you need to restart your shell, your installation should have automatically set up the pointer to bcd in your shell init script. If the command bcd is not working after your installation or something else has happened to change your shell scripts, running bookmark-cd and then restarting your shell should set this correctly.

At the moment, only the bash and zsh shells are supported, feel free to contribute if you are reading this and you need support for a different shell.

The following commmand should be set in your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc:

``` sh

bookmark-cd init block

eval "$(bookmark-cd init)"
```

How to use: create a bookmarks

``` sh

create a bookmark to the logs directory

cd /var/log bcd logs

move to home

cd ~

list the bookmarks

bcd -l

change to the bookmarked directory

bcd logs pwd ```

Contribute

There are many shell that this tool could be used on, I just don't use them. I would be happy to take a look at any PRs that add support for other shells.
