Bashmarks is a small shell script that lets you save, jump to, list, and delete bookmarks for frequently used directories in Bash, with tab completion support. Bookmarks are stored in a .sdirs file in your home directory.

Use cases

  • save and jump to commonly used directories in the shell
  • bookmark directories in bash
  • quickly cd to frequently visited folders
  • tab-complete directory bookmark names
  • list and manage shell directory bookmarks

When to choose

  • you spend a lot of time cd-ing between the same directories in Bash
  • you want a lightweight, dependency-free shell script for directory navigation
  • you want tab completion for saved directory shortcuts

When to avoid

  • you use zsh or fish and prefer a native plugin for your shell
  • you need fuzzy directory jumping like zoxide or autojump
  • you need bookmarks shared across multiple shells or machines
