I've played with Warp and it's really lovely. Great job all around. Not supporting CDPATH is a deal-breaker though—any ETA on support? There's a ticket here that's been languishing for a while 😦 https://github.com/warpdotdev/warp/issues/373
#CDPATH

Hi @digital perch. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting the importance of CDPATH support in Warp.

CDPATH is interesting but I feel like using aliases as I can add many aliases without the risk of breaking my shell.
I wonder if fzf would be able to serve as a workaround?
Something like this:
cd $(find * -type d | fzf)
thanks! i'm glad that works for your workflows, but i'm not looking for alternatives; just to understand if the team intends to support the functionality.

Totally understood, was just saying. I was more intrigued that I did not know about CDPATH. Also, if fzf would work as an interim until something solid come from Warp.

yeah, i think cdpath has been supported since system v (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UNIX_System_V), so i'll just stay off warp until it's supported.

I just read the docs and tried using cdpath on my Warp install and it works for me... I am using ZSH with OMZ and P10K. Not sure what shell you use but maybe there is something else in your profile that's breaking it for you?
