I'm not saying you should all go out and set up aliases to enable your various typos and slip-ups, but I honestly don't know why I didn't do this 25 years ago.

alias cd..='cd ..'

#bash #UNIX #Shell #UnixShell #POSIX

@rl_dane I raise you a few "alias ..='cd ..'", "alias ...='cd ../..'" etc as deep as you like ;-)

@simondassow

I see your "it's alias ......= all the way down, young man" and raise you a "I have my own 'smart cd' command that searches an index of directories under my home directory and cd's to it if there's only one, or calls fzf for you to search through the results, and is much faster than fzf's cd **something** magic (or whatever that syntax was ;)"
