db

./cfg/db contains the directories in your database. This is the file you edit, and it follows a simple syntax.

<alias-name> /path/to/dir

The alias name needs to be one argument...otherwise the script can't parse it.

After editing the db file, you will run ./bin/db -- which parses the data and outputs a file to ./dat/db-c containing your aliases in shell form. Add source /path/to/Scripts/dat/db-c to your shell config. After that, just remember to source your shell config and everything should work.
