    It’s six letters. Can’t they just call it zd or something? Yeah sure, I can use aliases, but why complicate in the first place?

        This is most probably a distro-specific aliasing. Tried it on Guix, it does not work:

        $ z
        bash: z: command not found
        
        $ zoxide
        zoxide 0.9.2
        ....

          It’s in the official docs for zoxide, you are supposed to use the z alias, and many distros just set it up directly like that. I love doing z notes from wherever I am.

            Description fifth point (5.)

            That doesn’t require a separate package, especially one which uses eval on every new shell. And isn’t messing with my distros or personal aliases (and doesn’t introduce cargo-packaging).

            Simply adding one to two (you get the gist) directories and a keybind for cd .. is more slick. There are cases where you might use pushd . but even then other tooling should already cover your needs.

            It’s also so easy that you can temporarly append to $CDPATH for a specific session. But again, then a second pane or pushd is already available.

            Now downvote me, lemmy.
