Command: wcd
WCD is a command-line program to change directory fast. It saves time
typing at the keyboard. One needs to type only a part of a directory
name and WCD will jump to it. WCD has a fast selection method in case
of multiple matches and allows aliasing and banning of directories. WCD
also includes a full screen interactive directory tree browser with
speed search.
