Instead of doing 'cd ../../../parent/subdir' or 'cd `bd parent`/subdir' you can do '. bd parent/subdir' to get the same result. The argument provided is split into a search string and a descend path. The search string is used instead of $2 (or $1) in the main code, so -s and -si work the same way as before, and the descend path is appended to $NEWPWD if match is found. Note: the argument is split at the first '/' only so its possible to do something like '. bd parent/subdir/subdir2/subdir3'

I need help making Basic completion works fine, but the subdir path completion is more of a hack. Some suggestions would be great! |
The basic search string is completed like before Path completion is supported for the descend path Special characters are correctly escaped Loads of room for improvement in the completion function
using the `filenames` option. Better than escaping them using a substituion regex.
