I installed with apt-get, checked out the man page and added
. /usr/share/autojump/autojump.sh
to my .bashrc, like it says. When I cd
around the filesystem, nothing gets added to ~/.local/share/autojump
. I then tried adding . /usr/share/autojump/autojump.bash
, but that didn't work either.
autojump -a ~/Dropbox
properly creates a file ~/.local/share/autojump/autojump.txt
, but running j Drop < TAB >
doesn't autocomplete to j ~/Dropbox/
as it should. However, j < TAB >
does autocomplete to j ~/Dropbox
.
I know my bash-completion is working since it works for git, dd, and others.
I know there's a newer version in the repositories set for Quantal. Perhaps that would work? I don't know how to install that version though. I've used autojump with mac homebrew (and it installed without any issue), so I know there is missing functionality.
In general I'm really annoyed that I can't get this working...I've spent hours on it! Needless to say, help would be very appreciated.
