Package for quickly navigating to a specific parent directory in eshell without having to repeatedly typing 'cd ..'. This is achieved using the 'eshell-up' function, which can be bound to an eshell alias such as 'up'. As an example, assume that the current working directory is: /home/user/first/second/third/fourth/fifth $ Now, in order to quickly go to (say) the directory named 'first' one simply executes: /home/user/first/second/third/fourth/fifth $ up fi /home/user/first $ This command searches the current working directory from right to left (while skipping the current directory, 'fifth') for a directory that matches the user's input ('fi' in this case). If a match is found then eshell changes to that directory, otherwise it does nothing. It is recommended to invoke 'eshell-up' using an alias as done in the example above. To do that, add the following to your .eshell.aliases file: alias up eshell-up $1 The complete description of eshell-up, including other features, is available at: https://github.com/peterwvj/eshell-up This package is inspired by 'bd', which uses bash to implement similar functionality.
