    @pfm not to brag (too much) but I'm well beyond that point :D I implemented a small system of fav directory, where each of them gets an alias gist.github.com/maxlath/724d01
    -> that's the simple version, mine also has `before cd` and `after cd` hooks, where I typically `ls` or start a server, etc

    I'm not sure I would have implemented it back in the days if I had knew #autojump existed though github.com/wting/autojump

    cd to/some/very/annoyingly/long/path

    # accidentally cd to home directory
    cd

    # cd back to that previous directory
    cd -
