Jump is a command-line program that allows you to quickly navigate your file system using a set of pre-defined shortcuts. You can add your own shortcuts and even import them from other users. Here’s how you can install Jump on EndeavourOS Latest.

Step 1: Install Git

First, we need to install Git, which is a version control system that allows you to download and install Jump from its Github repository. To install Git, run the following command:

sudo pacman -S git

Step 2: Clone the Jump repository

Now that Git is installed, you can clone the Jump repository from Github using the following command:

git clone https://github.com/daledavies/jump.git ~/.jump

This will create a new directory called jump in your home directory.

Step 3: Set up the Jump shell script

Once you’ve cloned the Jump repository, you need to set up the Jump shell script by adding the following line to your .bashrc or .zshrc file:

[[ -s ~/.jump/scripts/jump.sh ]] && source ~/.jump/scripts/jump.sh

This line will ensure that the Jump shell script is executed every time you launch a new terminal session. To edit your .bashrc or .zshrc file, run the following command:

nano ~/.bashrc

or

nano ~/.zshrc

Step 4: Reload your terminal

After you’ve added the Jump shell script to your .bashrc or .zshrc file, you need to reload your terminal for the changes to take effect. You can do this by typing:

source ~/.bashrc

or

source ~/.zshrc

Step 5: Test Jump

Finally, you can test Jump by navigating to a directory that you’ve set up as a shortcut using Jump. For example, if you’ve set up a shortcut called work to navigate to your work directory, you can type:

j work

This should take you directly to your work directory.
