C shell pushd/popd on steroids as Korn Shell functions

Blogfinger inspires me to post some of my crazy KSH function code. The code below is a heavily hacked version of a similar functions that I got from Will several years ago. Someday I should post my partial ASN.1 DER encoder/decoder written in KSH :)

Syntax highlighting courtesy of VIM and its :TOhtml feature.

typeset|grep '^integer cdx$' > /dev/null || integer cdx=0
typeset|grep '^integer cdsx$' > /dev/null || integer cdsx=0
function cdhelp

        Usage: cdinit  [<file>]
        Usage: cdcl
            Initialize directory list and stack.
            Clear directory list and stack.
        Usage: cdfind  <path> [quiet]
        Usage: cdgrep  <partial path> [first]
            Find a directory, by exact match in the cd list.
            Find matching directories in the cd list.
        Usage: cdls
        Usage: cdrf    [-a|--append] [<files>|-]
            Show the cd list. Use this to save your cd list.
            Read in a cd list and replace the current cd list.
        Usage: cdsv    [<directory paths>] (if none given then CWD)
            Save the given or current directory to the cd list.
        Usage: cdow    <index>
            Overwrite the given entry in the cd list with the CWD.
        Usage: cdto    <index>|<path>|[+]<partial path>
            Change the current directory to an entry from the cd list,
            or, if a path is given, then change to the given path and
            save to the cd list.
        Usage: cdrm [<path>|<index>]
            Remove a directory, or the current directory from the cdlist.
        Usage: cdsort
            Sort the cd list (alphanumerically)
        Usage: pushd   [<directory>]
        Usage: popd    [<number>]
        Usage: rightd  [<number>] (reverse of popd)
        Usage: dirs    (shows dirs in pushd/popd stack)
            Directory stack, similar to the C-Shell built-ins of similar names.

One Response to “C shell pushd/popd on steroids as Korn Shell functions”

  1. Nicolas,
    great stuff! Thanks!
    It inspired me to a nice “mkdir && cd” function I wanted to have since ages, but never searched for or programmed – in my blog entry now.

    cu,
    Bernd
