# Bashmarks plugin The Bashmarks plugin allows you to create and use bookmarks for directories on your filesystems. This plugin is derived from the project https://github.com/huing/bashmarks but contains improvements. This plugin is licensed under the 3-Clause BSD license. ## Quickstart Create a new bookmark using the *bm -a* command: ```bash $ bm -a mydir ``` The command above creates a bookmark for the current directory with the name *mydir*. You can navigate to the location of a bookmark using the *bm -g* command: ```bash $ bm -g mydir ``` You can also supply just any bookmark name and the *-g* option will be assumed: ```bash $ bm mydir ``` Tab completion is available when you need to enter a bookmark name in a command, such as when using *bm -g* Easily list all bookmarks you have set up using the *bm -l* command: ```bash $ bm -l ``` ## Configuration - **`BASHMARKS_SDIR`**: This variable contains the path to the file that stores the information of bookmarks of directory names. The default path is `~/.sdirs`. The old interface `SDIRS` is now deprecated. ## Configuration - `BASHMARKS_SDIR`: This variable contains the path to the file that stores the information of bookmarks of directory names.
