- qxxx 16d agoyes! zoxide is also probably my most used tool. I did not map it to cd yet, but I use the z command to jump into directories indexed by zoxide.
- BeetleB 16d agoI go a step further. When I press Alt + j, it sends all the directories in zoxide to fzf (in order of frequency), and I quickly choose the directory and jump to it. I rarely type "cd" anymore. A huge quality of life improvement!
- maleldil 16d agoYou don't need to use fzf. Zoxide has an interactive function too.
- 1718627440 16d agoIs it much more powerful, than pushd?
- SAI_Peregrinus 16d agoYes, because you don't have to pop in order. "zoxide <subpath>" is "search the history of working directories for a path ending in <subpath> and cd to that".
