It looks like no one has posted what, in my opinion, is the most powerful of the "jump" programs: fasd.

My workflow for getting around is just to type "z <fragment of directory name>" and I almost always end up where I want. If I just want to edit a file, not a project, I do vim `f <filename fragment>` and likewise get the file I want typically.

The readme makes it pretty clear how awesome it is and I've stuck with it after using autojump, z, and others.

Second this recommendation. fasd works extremely well, and better than z and autojump for my usage. I use it all the time.
It seems to behave really good, thanks!
