fishmarks

Fishmarks is a clone of bashmarks for the Fish shell. Fishmarks is compatible with your existing bashmarks and bookmarks added using fishmarks are also available in bashmarks.

Installation

Automatic Installation

To install fishmarks automatically, paste the following in your terminal.

curl -L https://github.com/techwizrd/fishmarks/raw/master/install.fish | fish

Please note, however, that you should never install things by piping untrusted "install" scripts downloaded through curl directly into your shell (be it bash or fish). Even if you read through the install script and think you understand it, you could be prone to a man-in-the-middle attack or any number of security vulnerabilities. While manual installations are tedious, they are recommended for any situations where security is a concern (and it should almost always be a concern).

Manual Installation

To install fishmarks manually:

1. Clone fishmarks into ~/.fishmarks

$ git clone http://github.com/techwizrd/fishmarks.git

2. Source fishmarks/marks.fish in your config.fish by inserting the following into your ~/.config/fish/config.fish

# Load fishmarks (http://github.com/techwizrd/fishmarks)
source ~/.fishmarks/marks.fish

Update to the latest version

To update to the latest version of fishmarks:

1. Navigate to the directory where your fishmarks code is kept (It is located in ~/.fishmarks by default)

cd ~/.fishmarks

2. Use git to fetch the latest version:

git fetch --all

3. Remove any changes and force update to the latest version from the Git repository:

git reset --hard origin/master

Usage

Commands

s <bookmark_name> - Saves the current directory as "bookmark_name"
g <bookmark_name> - Goes (cd) to the directory associated with "bookmark_name"
p <bookmark_name> - Prints the directory associated with "bookmark_name"
d <bookmark_name> - Deletes the bookmark
l - Lists all available bookmarks'

Configuration Variables

All of these must be set before virtual.fish is sourced in your ~/.config/fish/config.fish.

• SDIRS - (default: ~/.sdirs) where all your bookmarks are kept.
• NO_FISHMARKS_COMPAT_ALIASES - set this to turn off the bashmark-compatible aliases (e.g., p for print_bookmark)
