cd

An alternate CD function that accommodates partial directory name matches.

function cd

MODIFIED VERSION of TMW's "Change current working directory" (cd) function.

In this version, "unique partial matches" are treated as successes.

For example, if the current directory contains a subdirectory entitled 'Test Files In Progress', typing 'cd tes' will suffice to change to that directory as long as the partial match is non-ambiguous. (If another directory called 'Tesselations' also exists in the current directory, no action will be taken.

For exact matches, or when output arguments are provided, this version reverst to the builtin cd command functionality.

USAGE: You might consider storing this function in an @char directory on your system path to overwrite the builtin cd functionality.
