CShell 5.00 can do, among other things, what you're asking for. There is
another tool around that does this job, but I did not like it, because it
stores the list of directories on your HD as a binary file, whereas CShell
stores it ASCII. Moreover, CShell is faster, allows abbreviations of direc-
tory names, supports multiple partitions, lets you cycle through the direc-
tories that matched your abbreviation, allows adding the parent directory
of where you want to go (in case you have many directories with the same
name) and has an editing key that inserts the full path of the a directory
where you would norton-cd to (for example you want to delete a single file
in a distant directory without cd-ing to it).

    Satisfied?
