This app uses /tmp directory to create a file named crrr with the name of the target directory, so that the shell can then cd into this directory. Hence this project might not currently be suitable for multi-user systems.

Install

# npm
$ npm install --global crrr

# yarn
$ yarn global add crrr

And add the following to your shell profile (.bashrc, .bash_profile, .zshrc, etc)

if [ -x "$(command -v init_crrr)" ]; then
  source init_crrr
fi
