     gdirs(1)                 Mac OS X Darwin customization                gdirs(1)

    NAME
           gdirs - display directory stack as gui menu

    SYNOPSIS
           gdirs [-f] [-F]

    DESCRIPTION
           Type  gdirs and you will get a pop-up window that displays up to twenty
           previously visited directories. Pick whatever directory  you  want  and
           hit  "OK" and the terminal will cd to that directory. Type gdirs -f and
           both the terminal and Finder will change to the newly  selected  direc-
           tory.  Type  gdirs  -F  and  only  the  Finder will change to the newly
           selected directory.

           The non-gui version is (at present) a bit more flexible and  fully-fea-
           tured. Type dirstack [n] where n is an integer [defaults to 20] and you
           will get the n most recent directories  visited,  listed  with  numbers
           next  to them. The command cd?  is the same. You may then type (eg) cd7
           and the terminal will change directory to that listed on line 7 of  the
           dirstack  output.   cp7  or  cpath7 copies the directory path in line 7
           into the clipboard copy/paste buffer.

    OPTIONS
           -f     both the terminal and Finder will change to the  newly  selected
                  directory.

           -F     the Finder (only) will change to the newly selected directory
