I have a bunch of little scripts and aliases I've written over the years, but none are used more than these...

alias ..='cd ..'

alias ...='cd ../..'

alias ....='cd ../../..'

alias .....='cd ../../../..'

alias ......='cd ../../../../..'

alias .......='cd ../../../../../..'

I have setup a shortcut: alt+. to run cd.., it's pretty cool.

I also aliased - to run cd -

but alt-. in bash is used for pasting the last argument to the previous command into the current one.

Scripts I wrote that I use all the time
