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

``` sh
$ 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:

``` sh
$ 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.
