These sorts of things are really useful and it's one of the reasons I think everyone should keep their dotfiles on github or similar so they can share their little tricks. Mine are just a compilation of stuff like this that I've picked up from other people over the years. (I even try to put attributions in there if I got them from friends) My favorite one is c to change to my ~/code directory with tab completion from anywhere. So I can type c pr<tab><enter> to cd in to ~/code/project from anywhere. (Full disclosure This is zsh and I don't have a bash equivalent for that) Another thing I can't live without and some people hate is ls -la anytime I cd in to a directory. In a gui, I get that visual feedback immediately and it's usually the first thing I type when I land anyway so I just have a function for it https://github.com/gpspake/dotfiles/blob/master/zsh/gpspake/gpspake.plugin.zsh#L28 https://github.com/gpspake/dotfiles/blob/master/zsh/gpspake/...
