z -r {{foo}}

  • Go to the most recently accessed directory matching "foo":

z -t {{foo}}

  • List all directories in z's database matching "foo":

z -l {{foo}}

  • Remove the current directory from z's database:

z -x .

  • Restrict matches to subdirectories of the current directory:

z -c {{foo}}
