Using ‘+’ and ‘-’ for Shell Aliases
fuel, 20:37h
The directory stack of Unix shells is a useful feature to set temporary “bookmarks” to directories, but I find pushd and popd long and cumbersome to type. I can recommend to alias them to ‘+’ and ‘-’, which are easy to remember and fast to type:
alias +='pushd .' alias -- -='popd'
