This alias swaps the top two directories on the stack - useful for
directory hoppers like me:
alias / 'set dirstack=`dirs -l`; popd; cd $dirstack[1]; pushd $dirstack[2]'

You can even do pushd +2 to swap (sort of) the top and second to the top. -- Ken Turkowski @ CIMLINC, Menlo Park, CA UUCP: {amd,decwrl,hplabs,seismo,spar}!turtlevax!ken ARPA: turtlevax!ken@DECWRL.DEC.COM

A nice alias I use is: alias rot pushd +1 The effect is to rotate all your pushdir'd directories one position to the left. I use this alias a lot. Sean
