CXDIR

Simple shortcut manager

I made this tool to save time when working. now instead of using cd a/very/long/path, i can use
cx shortcut and quickly change my current directory to another one based on the path pointed by this shortcut.

It's a zoxide like tool made in bash-scripting

If there is something that i can guarantee, it's that: It works on my computer (Ubuntu) Please try on you environement and let's improve it
