Installing Jumper

Jumper is a simple script to add aliases to your .bashrc file. To insert a bookmark you just type -after installation- the command 'jump BOOKMARK_NAME BOOKMARK_DESTINATION'.

After this you should reload your .bashrc-file with the command 'source ~/.bashrc'.

Before installing Jumper you should make sure that the Ruby Interpreter is installed on your system. Also the Rubygems package should be installed, you can find this in the package manager of all major distro's.

The script is only tested on Linux but should work on all UNIX/Linux based systems.

After installing the Ruby Interpreter and the Rubygems package run the command: 'gem install jumper'

Then run the command 'gem contents jumper', this will print the location of all the jumper-files. Next, open your favorite text-editor and open your .bashrc file. At the end of this file you should add the next line: 'alias jump="ruby PATH_TO_JUMP.RB_FILE"'

Next you reload your .bashrc file (source ~/.bashrc). Now you can add bookmarks (aliasses to your .bashrc). You can change dir with the command 'jump-BOOKMARK_NAME', if you want a list of all your bookmarks, type 'alias'.

If you have problems running the script: please make sure that the jump.rb script is executable.
