cdir 1.3

A faster way to navigate folders and browse files in Windows and Linux shells.

CDIR

This project exists because I felt that typing multiple cd, dir/ls commands and striking the tab-key is not very fast or pleasant way to navigate in shell. As developers often need to work in multiple environments, cdir supports bash shell, Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell. The core component of the project is implemented with python and uses curses module. Windows version uses windows-curses module.

Features

• Use arrow keys and enter to browse files.
• Modern and easy-to-use search functionality for folders: just start typing the name of the folder and folders are filtered by their name.
• Supports bash shell, Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell.
• Easy to install.

Usage - Bash

1. Install with pip install cdir
2. Add following line to .bashrc:

3. Type cdir and start browsing files and folders.
4. Press f1 to quit cdir.

Usage - Windows Command Prompt
