How to navigate directories faster with Bash (2015)
I do the following [1]:
- I define "cdn" to be what others call "mkcd", as then if I have a command line "cd foo" and it tells me that foo doesn't exist, I can just add the 'n' to the previous entry. I also overload "cdn" so that when not given any argument, it goes into the newest subdirectory in the current directory.
- "u", "uu", "uuu", "uuuu", "uuuuu" for going "up" that many levels, and unlike the aliases in OP, I define them as functions and if those are given an argument, they descends into the path from there: "u foo" is equivalent to "cd ../foo", "uu foo" to "cd ../../foo".
- I also have a function called "mvcd foo bar" that moves foo to bar and then goes into bar. "mvcdnewdir foo bar" that does the same but will create bar. (I'm pondering unifying them to a version that always calls mkdir -p)
- an alias "c" for cd [2]. The single letter messes with the history search though (ctl-r c space or ctl-r cd space ?), so it's not necessarily a good idea.
- some functions for special locations, "cs" for ~/scratch, "cb" for ~/bookmarks, etc.

You should try hstr: https://github.com/dvorka/hstr
It's saved me countless hours over the years as it's just so much better than regular CTRL-R. Works with regular Bash, no need to switch shells.
