💖 mtx-fcd — Fast Directory Change 💖

okay bestie, sit down, because this one is literally called Fast Directory Change and it's about to make your cd habit look like a whole personality trait. it's mtx-fcd(1), from the ConTeXt tools family, and no cap it does exactly what it says on the tin. 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

mtxrun --script fcd [ OPTIONS ...  ] [ FILENAMES ]

that's it. that's the whole vibe. you call it through mtxrun with the fcd script, toss some options and some filenames at it, and off you go. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Fast Directory Change.

periodt. that's the description. sometimes the icon is short and mysterious and that's on purpose. 👑

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

one bullet per option, all the flags, zero skips, we don't gatekeep here:

  • --clear — wipes the cache clean. bye bye cache babe 😭
  • --clear with --history [entry] — clears the history (and if you hand it an entry, that's the one you're clearing, iykyk)
  • --scan — nukes the cache and then adds whatever path(s) you gave it. clean slate, fresh start, main character energy ✨
  • --add — just adds the given path(s). no clearing, no drama, just adding 🫶
  • --find — finds the given path, and yes it can totally be a substring because we're not out here typing full paths like a peasant 💀
  • --find with --nohistory — same find-a-path, same substring freedom, but it will not use the history to help. your past does not define you bestie 🙈
  • --stub — prints the platform stub file. it's giving mysterious but okay 🧚
  • --list — shows the roots of the cached dirs. a little tour of your cached kingdom 👑
  • --list with --history — shows the history of the dirs you chose. memory lane fr fr 🌈
  • --help — shows this help. classic, iconic, always there for you 💜
