For example: + +```zsh +$ cd §pjdb +$ subl §pjdb +``` + +where § is the fastfile prefix (see [below](#options) for how to change). + +**Note:** shortcuts with spaces in the name are assigned a global alias +where the spaces have been substituted with underscores (`_`). For example: +a shortcut named `"hello world"` corresponds with `§hello_world`. + +## Functions + +- `fastfile <shortcut_name> [path/to/file/or/folder]`: generate a shortcut. + If the second argument is not provided, the current directory is used. + +- `fastfile_print <shortcut_name>`: prints a shortcut, with the format + `<prefix><shortcut_name> -> <shortcut_path>`. + +- `fastfile_ls`: lists all shortcuts. + +- `fastfile_rm <shortcut_name>`: remove a shortcut. + +- `fastfile_sync`: generates the global aliases for the shortcuts. + +### Internal functions + +- `fastfile_resolv <shortcut_name>`: resolves the location of the shortcut + file, i.e., the file in the fastfile directory where the shortcut path + is stored. + +- `fastfile_get <shortcut_name>`: get the real path of the shortcut. + +## Aliases + +| Alias | Function | +|--------|------------------| +| ff | `fastfile` | +| ffp | `fastfile_print` | +| ffrm | `fastfile_rm` | +| ffls | `fastfile_ls` | +| ffsync | `fastfile_sync` | + +## Options + +These are options you can set to change certain parts of the plugin. To change +them, add `<variable>=<value>` to your zshrc file, before Oh My Zsh is sourced. +For example: `fastfile_var_prefix='@'`. + +- `fastfile_var_prefix`: prefix for the global aliases created. Controls the prefix of the + created global aliases. + **Default:** `§` (section sign), easy to type in a german keyboard via the combination + [`⇧ Shift`+`3`](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_keyboard_layout#/media/File:KB_Germany.svg), + or using `⌥ Option`+`6` in macOS. + +- `fastfile_dir`: directory where the fastfile shortcuts are stored.
