I put everything I code into ~/Documents/work. Could be called projects, same thing. Anyway, everytime I opened Terminal, I would have to type cd Documents/work. Of course, with tab completion, it’s not so bad. I’m a bit stupid though, and it takes me eons before I added cd ~/Documents/work to the end of my ~/.bash_profile.
Whenever I open a Terminal, I’m really going to start doing something in this folder. Now, why didn’t I think of that earlier? Next: retrain myself to not cd anywhere when I open a new Terminal…
Here’s my full ~/.bash_profile:
