In the past, my approach to this has been to just define an alias something along the lines of:
alias scd "cd ~/Sites" At times, I've also taken the approach of instructing whatever Terminal app I'm using at the time to just start in whatever directory is occupying most of my time. You may also be interested in $CDPATH. From fishshell.com/docs/current/commands.html#cd : > If DIRECTORY is a relative path, the paths found in the CDPATH environment > variable array will be tried as prefixes for the specified path. It is *possible* that setting $HOME will get you what you want, but I'd be pretty reluctant to do that because of how many different ways $HOME is used....you'll likely end up with all manner of nonsense dotfiles in your Sites folder.
