+# Dirhistory plugin
+
+This plugin adds keyboard shortcuts for navigating directory history and hierarchy.
+
+To use it, add `dirhistory` to the plugins array in your zshrc file:
+
+```zsh
+plugins=(... dirhistory)
+```
+
+## Keyboard Shortcuts
+
+| Shortcut                          | Description                                               |
+|-----------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------|
+| <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Left</kbd>  | Go to previous directory                                  |
+| <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Right</kbd> | Go to next directory                                      |
+| <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Up</kbd>    | Move into the parent directory                            |
+| <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Down</kbd>  | Move into the first child directory by alphabetical order |
+
+**For macOS: use the Option key (<kbd>⌥</kbd>) instead of <kbd>Alt</kbd>**.
+
+> NOTE: some terminals might override the <kbd>Alt</kbd> + Arrows key bindings (e.g. Windows Terminal).
+> If these don't work check your terminal settings and change them to a different keyboard shortcut.
+
+## Usage
+
+This plugin allows you to navigate the history of previous working directories using <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Left</kbd>
+and <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Right</kbd>. <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Left</kbd> moves to past directories, and
+<kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Right</kbd> goes back to recent directories.
+
+**NOTE: the maximum directory history size is 30.**
+
+You can also navigate **directory hierarchies** using <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Up</kbd> and <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Down</kbd>.
+<kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Up</kbd> moves to the parent directory, while <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Down</kbd> moves into the first
+child directory found in alphabetical order (useful to navigate long empty directories, e.g. Java packages).
+
+For example, if the shell was started, and the following commands were entered:
+
+```shell
+cd ~
+cd /usr
+cd share
+cd doc
+```
+
+the directory stack (`dirs -v`) would look like this:
+
+```console
+$ dirs -v
+0       /usr/share/doc
+1       /usr/share
+2       /usr
+3       ~
+```
+
+then entering <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Left</kbd> at the prompt would change directory from `/usr/share/doc` to `/usr/share`,
+then if pressed again to `/usr`, then `~`. If <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Right</kbd> were pressed the directory would be changed
+to `/usr` again.
+
+After that, <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Down</kbd> will probably go to `/usr/bin` if `bin` is the first directory in alphabetical
+order (depends on your `/usr` folder structure). <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Up</kbd> will return to `/usr`, and once more will get
+you to the root folder (`/`).
