The Teleport Command
The Teleport command is an improved version of the Unix/Linux cd
command.
It can be used on all Unix/Linux systems, including Mac OS X.
Features
The teleport command (tp
, for short) does everything the Linux cd
command does,
with these improvements:
- It keeps a history, remembering the directories you've visited before.
- It can display your history.
- It lets you easily jump (teleport) to any directory in your history.
- You can create aliases for your directories to make it even easier to jump to them.
You can see a short video demo of Teleport in action at this URL:
Bash Command-Line Completion
The Teleport command can also use Bash command-line completion. That is, when you type a partial directory name, your Teleport history will be searched and if a directory is found that matches the partial directory name you have typed, that directory name will be automatically completed for you. See the INSTALL.md file for more information on this feature.
