prevd - move backward through directory history

Synopsis
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
.. synopsis::
|
|
|
|
prevd [-l | --list] [POS]
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
``prevd`` moves backwards *POS* positions in the :ref:`history of visited directories <directory-history>`; if the beginning of the history has been hit, a warning is printed.
|
|
|
|
If the **-l** or **--list** flag is specified, the current history is also displayed.
|
|
|
|
Note that the ``cd`` command limits directory history to the 25 most recently visited directories. The history is stored in the :envvar:`dirprev` and :envvar:`dirnext` variables which this command manipulates.
|
|
|
|
The **-h** or **--help** option displays help about using this command.
|
|
|
|
Example
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
cd /usr/src
|
|
# Working directory is now /usr/src
|
|
|
|
cd /usr/src/fish-shell
|
|
# Working directory is now /usr/src/fish-shell
|
|
|
|
prevd
|
|
# Working directory is now /usr/src
|
|
|
