Nice Aliases for pushd

The pushd command () is nice for jumping around the filesystem. But some of the commands you might type a lot, like pushd +4, are sort of a pain to type. I saw these aliases () in Daniel Gilly's setup file. They looked so handy that I decided to steal them for this tutorial. There are C shell versions in the first column and bash in the second:

alias pd pushd alias pd=pushd alias pd2 'pushd +2' alias pd2="pushd +2" alias pd3 'pushd +3' alias pd3="pushd +3" alias pd4 'pushd +4' alias pd4="pushd +4"

So, for example, to swap the fourth directory on the stack, just type pd4.
