I've been thinking about wanting something akin to this, I just had no idea it existed, so what I've been doing instead is I've defined short aliases for some of my most frequent directories. I use such an alias which I have named "no" which does "cd /var/www/no.nordstroem.www/pub/htdocs" on my Raspberry Pi where I host my website. For most directories on my laptop and desktop rather than using an alias even though I might have defined one is I first try a reverse search for it in the shell history, for example ^Rklon to get to ~/src/github.com/eriknstr/klondike/. However reverse search will fail whenever I haven't worked with a directory for a while or if I've been doing a lot of things in one directory since I have chosen to leave the length of the shell history at its default. I would have liked to maybe start using the command you linked but unfortunately it is using the WTFPL so I will have to pass on it. But from the short description you quoted maybe I'll implement a similar tool myself some day. Then again maybe I will just keep doing things the way I'm doing them now because usually most of what I do is I go to a specific directory and do a lot of work there without moving much, typically said directory will be the root of the repository I have for what I'm working on. If I'm working in several project root directories at the same time I'll usually have multiple terminals open.
