   NAME
       autojump - a faster way to navigate your filesystem

   SYNOPSIS
       Load autojump:

	      . /usr/share/autojump/autojump.sh

       Jump to a previously visited directory `foobar':

	      j foo

       Show all database entries and their respective key weights:

	      jumpstat

   DESCRIPTION
       autojump is a faster way to navigate your filesystem.  It works by maintaining a database of the directories you use the most from the com-
       mand line.  The jumpstat command shows you the current contents of the database.  Directories must be visited  first  before  they  can	be
       jumped to.

   OPTIONS
       Options must be passed to `autojump' and not the `j' wrapper function.

	      -a, --add DIR	  manually add path to database

	      --stat		  show database entries and their key weights

	      --version 	  show version information and exit

   INTERNAL OPTIONS
	      -b, --bash	  enclose directory with quotes to prevent errors

	      --completion	  prevent key weight decay over time

   ADVANCED USAGE
       o Prefer Symbolic Links

	 Default  behavior is to evaluate symbolic links into full paths as to reduce duplicate entries in the database.  However, some users pre-
	 fer a shorter working directory path in their shell prompt.  To switch behavior to prefer symbolic links, export the following configura-
	 tion in your ~/.bashrc:

		export AUTOJUMP_KEEP_SYMLINKS=1

       o Change Directory Weight

	 To  manually  change  a  directory's key weight, you can edit the file $XDG_DATA_HOME/autojump/autojump.txt.  Each entry has two columns.
	 The first is the key weight and the second is the path:

		29.3383211216	/home/user/downloads

	 All negative key weights are purged automatically.

   KNOWN ISSUES
       o zsh (bug #86)

	 Tab completion does not work.

       o jumpapplet (bug #59)

	 Does not work in Gnome 3 shell or LDXE.

   FILES
       If installed locally, autojump is self-contained in ~/.autojump/.

       The database is stored in $XDG_DATA_HOME/autojump/autojump.txt.
