Ryan-AW / fll

A linux cli utility for navigating deep file systems using aliases

Fll allows you to create short aliases for directory paths. Then next time you need to navigate there you can use the alias instead!

Fll is a simple yet powerful utility program - designed specifically for Linux terminal users. Fll allows you to create bookmarks for frequently used directory paths, making it easier and faster to navigate within a terminal.

This cli program will save you time and hassle, especially if you work with deep directory structures.

example usage:

user@test-user:/$ fll path1 this/is/a/sample/path/ # sets alias "path1"
user@test-user:/$ fll path1                        # changes directory using the alias "path1"
user@test-user:/this/is/a/sample/path$ 

Install dependencies

sudo apt install sqlite3

Install

git clone https://github.com/Ryan-AW/fll ~/fll

then add these two lines to your ~/.bashrc file (or ~/.zshrc if you use Zsh):

alias fll='source ~/fll/fll.sh'
source "${HOME}/fll/fll_completion.sh"

important Ensure that the path points to where you cloned the repository.

(Note: You may need to restart your terminal or run source ~/.bashrc (or source ~/.zshrc if you use Zsh) for the changes to take effect.)

warning This program must be run as a source file otherwise it will not work.
