$ s a-name-you-like # save a mark with name 'a-name-you-like'
$ g # like `cd`, jump to your home
$ g - # like `cd -`, jump to last visited directory
$ g a-name-you-like # jump to the marked directory based on the name
$ g a-name # the same as above, the mark name will be expanded
$ p # list all predefined marks
$ d a-name-you-like # delete the mark
