dired-recent http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/dired-recent-badge.svg

A history of paths visited with Emacs dired.

Installation

Install from MELPA.

M-x package-install dired-recent

Usage

  1. Enable the global minor mode. 
    (dired-recent-mode 1)
  2. Press C-x C-d to select a previously visited directory to open.

    A package like Ivy greatly improves the experience.

Additional info

dired-recent-mode hijacks the C-x C-d key that in theory it shouldn’t. I decided that this key is so useless by default and at the same time would make much sense for dired-recent, that I’m going to use it. If you’re uncomfortable with it, you can unbind it with the following code. Note that dired-recent must be already loaded.

(define-key dired-recent-mode-map (kbd "C-x C-d") nil)
(define-key dired-recent-mode-map (kbd "SOME OTHER KEY") #'dired-recent-open)
