** NOTE **

If you like this project, check out http://github.com/rupa/z

a complete rethink that the author is now using.

If you are a python person and interested in experimenting with stuff, 

http://github.com/rupa/j2 is similar to z, uses python to make experimentation 

somewhat easier (for me at least), but is not really maintained or indented for

everyday use.

**********

maintains a jump-list of the directories you actually use

old directories eventually fall off the list

inspired by Joel Schaerer's http://wiki.github.com/joelthelion/autojump

and something similar i had - but i could never get the dir list right.

INSTALL:

  source into .bashrc under your '[-z "$PS1" ] || return' line

  cd around for a while

USE:

  j [--h[elp]] [--l] [--r] [--s] [regex1 ... regexn]

                      with no args, returns full list (same as j --l)

    regex1 ... regexn jump to the the weighted directory matching all masks

    --l               show the list instead of jumping

    --r               order by recently used instead of most used.

    --s               shortest matching path

TIPS:

  Some handy aliases:

    alias jl='j --l'

    alias jr='j --r'

    alias js='j --s'
