href="http://www.xs4all.nl/~waterlan/">Wherever Change Directory</a> (WCD via Download Squad) is the name of a Windows script that is offering a way to change directories in the Windows command line blazingly fast. It indexes the directory structure of the computer system at first start of the application which takes a few seconds. After that it is possible to change directories with the command wcd directory, for example wcd desktop. The default search is to look for every directory name that begins with the search term that the user entered. Wildcards can be used to change that behavior.</p><p>WCD will display all directories with desktop in their name giving the user the option to pick one to change to. If only one directory with the name was found on the system WCD will immediately make the directory change.</p><p><span
id="more-7360"></span>Wherever Change Directory supports local directories, Windows LAN UNC paths, alias  directories and subdirectories.</p><p>A user who has the intention to work regularly with the software program should either move it into a system path directory or add the new directory to the system path to be able to run wcd from every location and not only its source directory.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.ghacks.net/2008/10/02/command-line-directory-switcher/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>6</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
