\section nextd nextd - move forward through directory history
\subsection nextd-synopsis Synopsis
\fish{synopsis}
nextd [ -l | --list ] [POS]
\endfish
\subsection nextd-description Description
`nextd` moves forwards `POS` positions in the history of visited directories; if the end of the history has been hit, a warning is printed.
If the `-l` or `--list` flag is specified, the current directory 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 `$dirprev` and `$dirnext` variables which this command manipulates.
You may be interested in the <a href="commands.html#cdh">`cdh`</a> command which provides a more intuitive way to navigate to recently visited directories.

cd /usr/src/fish-shell
# Working directory is now /usr/src/fish-shell
