Installation

By simply sourcing corresponding script file for your shell, you're all set. However, this plugin is sitting on top of z and fzf, so you must have them installed as well.

N.B. fz needs to be sourced after z.

Usage

z [dir name slug]<TAB>
zz [dir name slug]<TAB>

• The function of fz is pretty much like what it is of z. zz limits the search base starting from current working directory. Check z’s doc for more information.
• tab/shift-tab, ctrl-n/ctrl-p, ctrl-j/ctrl-k, for next and previous item. Enter for selection. Check fzf’s doc for the search syntaxes.
• FZ_CMD=z specifies command name of fz. Default is z.
• FZ_SUBDIR_CMD=zz specifies command name for subdirectory only z. Default is zz.
• FZ_SUBDIR_TRAVERSAL=0 disables subdirectory completion. Default is enabled.
• FZ_CASE_INSENSITIVE=0 disables case-insensitive subdirectory completion. Default is enabled.
• FZ_ABBREVIATE_HOME=0 disables abbreviating ~. Default is enabled.
• FZ_HISTORY_CD_CMD=_zlua works with z.lua.
