cdhist VS z

Consider also cdhist.

Again, not answering your question directly but you could consider using cdhist which allows FZF to search over all your previously visited directories.

Another option is cdhist which can work with fzf to fuzzy search over your directory history, rather than immediate directory paths. That is more useful to me.

I use ranger frequently also, e.g. for navigating around an unfamiliar directory tree to see what dirs and files are there. But cdist automatically keeps track of all directories I cd to and allows me to quickly jump back to any of them. Generally I work in various projects/dirs etc, and then just cd -- to switch between them (or I sometimes use fzf nowadays which can fuzzy search that cdhist history).

@wixig, can you please raise an issue on github for cdhist support. Not really appropriate here on reddit.

https://github.com/skywind3000/z.lua was another that I used for a long time, although I've lately started using https://github.com/jethrokuan/z

A lot of reinventing the wheel in the z space it seems

z

Fish + Starship (https://starship.rs/) + z (https://github.com/jethrokuan/z). For me it is a really nice configuration, fast do do stuff & visually pleasant (it influences my comfort & motivation).

I use fish shell with z plugin to quickly jump to directories and nnn file manager mainly to select files for deletion. I also use dirbuf plugin for neovim when working inside this editor.

it also has a fish version https://github.com/jethrokuan/z

Use a directory jumper, so you don't have to keep cding all the time. I use z

https://github.com/jethrokuan/z Looks like it exists for fish, too

z for fish - Directory jumping

That reminds me of the fish z port...it does some fuzzy matching to get you quickly to frequently used dirs

Been using https://github.com/jethrokuan/z for a long time but yours looks nice! I'll definitely take a look at your search system.
