Wcd is a command-line program to change directory fast. It saves time typing at the keyboard. One needs to type only a part of a directory name and wcd will jump to it. Wcd has a fast selection method in case of multiple matches and allows aliasing and banning of directories.

Wcd also includes a full screen interactive directory tree browser with speed search.

 

Wcd was modeled after Norton Change Directory (NCD). NCD appeared first in *The Norton Utilities, Release 4*, for DOS in 1987, published by Peter Norton.

 

Wcd has been ported to different command-line shells: DOS command.com, Windows cmd.exe and PowerShell, OS/2 cmd.exe, and Unix shells such as Bourne (sh), Bourne Again (bash), Korn (ksh), Z (zsh), and C (csh) shell and others running on any operating system.

 

Wcd supports 8 bit character sets on all systems, and has optional support for Unicode. See section LOCALIZATION.
