Jump: a bookmarking system for the bash shell

[](http://flavio.castelli.name/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/van-halen- jump.jpeg)Let me introduce a small project I’ve been working on with a friend of mine, Giuseppe Capizzi. The project is called jump and allows you to quickly change directories in the bash shell using bookmarks.

Thanks to Jump, you won’t have to type those long paths anymore.
