dirs: Display the directory stack with one entry per line.
$ dirs -p
try on your machine
The command "dirs -p" is used to display the current directory stack, also known as the directory history, in a particular format.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "dirs" is a command used to manage the directory stack, which stores a list of previously visited directories.
- "-p" is an option or flag that modifies the behavior of the "dirs" command to display the directory stack in a particular format.
When you execute the "dirs -p" command, it will display the directory stack in a readable format, usually showing one directory per line. Each directory represents a previously visited location, with the most recent directory appearing at the bottom. This format can be useful for quickly viewing and managing your recently visited directories.
