zm is cd for lazy people who don’t care where they are, or how to get where they’re going.
zm is a command line tool intended as a convenience layer on top of cd.
This is free and open source software.
The zoom command will look for a directory that ends with the string you gave:
- In your current folder
- Recursively from your current folder
- Recursively from your home directory Once it finds a match, it’ll stop looking and return the path. If it can’t find a match, it’ll just pass back what you gave it.
