Autojump is a really neat utility that complements the cd command very nicely. For instance if I have a folder called "my_project", I can just say "j project", and the auto jump command will directly jump to this directory (wherever it is in my filesystem).
How does it work?
Autojump tracks how much time you spend in your command line on a specific folder. And builds a weight chart. So, if you have spent enough some time in your my_project directory on command line, and you say "j project", it will check its registry and jump to the highest match. And, the best thing is you don't even need to specify the full name. Partial names work!
