mkcd

mkcd is an assortment of directory and file creation, deletion, and traversal utilities.

Included Features

Yes, the elusive mkdir and cd.

$ mkcd mydir

Recursive cd: a recursive cd that will continue as long as there is only one directory (and no files) in your CWD. (Great for those Java packages)

$ rcd [dirname]

Remove current directory: a command that will remove the current directory (since rm -rf . does not work).

$ rmcd

Installation

There are two ways to install this. The first way automatically installs to your ~/.bashrc file; the second way is to install to a file, which allows you to put the file wherever you want.

User install

This will put it into your ~/.bashrc file.

$ make install

Local install

This will generate a new file named mkcd that contains all the available commands. (In the user install, this would be appended to ~/.bashrc)

$ make

Lint

It just parses for syntax errors.

$ make lint
