Sure -- here is the actual version from my dotfiles:

(You can skip the stuff wrapping virtualenv, obviously.)

Basically just define a function that does the write, set HISTFILE, read, and then elsewhere alias cd=mycd.

If anyone gives it a try, I'd love to hear how it works! I think it needs some tweaks -- for example, multiple terminals in the same directory are probably clobbering each other -- looks like this 'shopt -s histappend' would help with that.

I am totally going to try this out! Thanks!
