Hey! I'm the writer of these tools and was kind of surprised to run into it here, since I have not posted about this before — the submitter must have been an adventurous PyPI visitor ;)

This particular tool was mostly written to replace all the ad-hoc aliases and symlinks with something that could be easily maintained and brought to other commands (eg. cdbm, lsbm, mvbm, cpbm, etc.). To speed things up some more there's also tab completion and prefix matching, which is pretty convenient IMO.

Well, actually I was using cdbm and thought it might be nice to mention it on HN. Then I noticed you added some other interesting stuff as well, so even more reason to submit it to HN :)

So not an adventerous PyPi visitor, just someone who was looking throught his bookmarks ;)

Oh and thanks a lot for creating and sharing it. It's a great tool which IMHO should become part of the 'default' cd, mv and cp.
