# cdp: Change Directory Pro
How do you navigate in your terminal? Do you chain sequences of `cd` commands together, or copy a file path and paste it? Sometimes to a destination directory that's not adjacent to your current one?

`cdp` might be the solution for you. It's a command that activates an interactive way to navigate directories smoothly and easily. Compatible with bash and zsh.

## Controls
- `cdp` to activate
- ↑/↓ to change the selected subdirectory
- ← to move into the parent subdirectory (disallowed when in $HOME)
- → to make the selected subdirectory the active one (i.e. `cd` into it)
- ↵ (return) to exit navigation in the new active directory
- Ctrl+C to cancel navigation, staying in the initial directory
- Any characters (except backslash) to search for a specific substring

## Installation
Download `cdp.sh` and place it wherever you want. You can source this file in your `.{zsh|bash}rc`, or you can directly copy the contents in. The following commands can help with that (replace `.zshrc` with `.bashrc` as appropriate):

```zsh
# source file from .zshrc
echo "source <path-to-file>" >> ~/.zshrc
# copy into .zshrc
tail -n +3 <path-to-file> >> ~/.zshrc
```
