INTRODUCTION

Autojump2 is a fork of Autojump originaly written by Joel Schaerer (https://github.com/joelthelion/autojump). The philosophy is different from Autojump.

Autojump use "j" command and increment a number after each call. In opposite, Autojump2 is a replacement of "cd" command. "cd" behaviour is enhanced by intelligent completion and short links to your favorite directories.

** Personal opinion **

Another thing is that the code is simpler than Autojump2, completion is smarter, database management is better.

Regular expressions.

Autojump2 use two regular expressions constructed with arguments, "cd a b c" is translated in :

./.a.b.c.* # All arguments define last directory name
./.a./.b./.c.* # Arguments are part of path So you can address complex paths with multiple arguments.

LICENCE

Autojump2 (like autojump) is under GPL version 3 licence.
