Adding shortcuts to bash.

This repository holds a very humble and simple script that handles shortcuts of bash paths. For example:

$ g awesome
# instead of ...
$ cd /home/user/directory/dir/awesome

Furthermore, this repo also brings a file that adds bash completion so the user can access the desired directory as fast as possible. In order to manage shortcuts, this script accepts three commands:

$ g add awesome /home/user/directory/dir/awesome
$ g list
# Output:
# awesome  => /home/user/directory/dir/awesome
$ cd /home/user/directory/anotherawesome
$ g add anotherawesomedir
$ g rm awesome
$ g list
# Output:
# anotherawesome  => /home/user/directory/anotherawesome

I guess that the commands above are quite self-explanatory.

Install

Just place the g.sh and the gcompletion.sh files wherever you want and then add a source command for both of the files in the .bashrc file.
