## Installation
To install use pip:
```bash
xpip install xontrib-back2dir
# or: xpip install -U git+https://github.com/anki-code/xontrib-back2dir
echo "xontrib load back2dir" > ~/.xonshrc
```
## Usage
No additional actions needed. The xontrib just saves the latest directory and uses it when
xonsh starts:
```bash
bash ~ $ xonsh
xonsh ~ $ cd /etc
xonsh /etc $ exit # the latest directory is /etc
bash ~ $ xonsh
xonsh /etc $ # the latest directory
```
If you run xonsh not from the `$HOME` directory the latest directory will be ignored:
```bash
bash ~ $ cd /tmp
bash /tmp $ xonsh
xonsh /tmp $ # latest directory ignored
```
