# Lacy 💤
Lacy is a z inspired cd alternative. It aims to make navigating easier for lazy people.
### Navigation without full path
You don't have to type the full directory name.
Just make sure the path matches the directory name more or less.
```sh
# normal cd
cd /Users/timothebot/projects/lacy/src
# with lacy
y / user timo prj lacy sr
# or
y / usrs timbo rojt layc rc
```
### Skipping directories
Forgot the directory name? No problem. Just skip it using `-`.
```sh
y / user timo - lacy sr
# as long as some parts are still unique, it will work... and it's very fast
y / - - - lacy sr
```
### Like cd
Everything you can do with `cd`, you can do with `y`.
```sh
y /Users/timo/Projects/Lacy/src
y ~
y ..
```
### Real paths
You can also add real paths while lazy navigating.
```sh
y /Users/timo/ desk proj lacy/src
```
## Installation
```sh
# macOS or Linux
cargo install lacy
```
### Zsh
Add the following to your `.zshrc` file:
```shell
eval "$(lacy init zsh)"
```
### Other shells
Feel free to contribute the init script for your shell. I'm gonna add them as soon as I can.
## Why not `z`?
`z` is a great tool, but if you are working with a lot of projects with similar paths, it can be a pain to navigate. `z` also needs to learn first, while lacy can be used on systems you (or lacy) never touched before.
You can use `z` alongside lacy.
