CDIR
[!IMPORTANT]
This tool is not maintained, and the repo is kept as a read-only archive. Nowadays there are better alternatives such as yazi.
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.
Discussion about cdir in a Tecmint blog post:
"Yes, fix something that is not broken." -Linus Torvalds
"I agree with you. However, I just decided to try out the tool on CentOS 8 and see how it compares to running the ls and cd commands. Honestly, I like it." -James Kiarie
"Some of the greatness innovations in the world have been realized by fixing the unbroken." -Pat
