You may find yourself in another part of the world

On a dare from Dylan, I wrote this up last night as a quick and dirty way of keeping track of where I left off in a given terminal window. When you’re walking away from a task, simply run

whereami <note to self>

and it will start being reflected in your terminal prompt. When you sit down to work again, run

whereami

with no arguments to clean out the note to yourself. Because it works using environment variables, you can use this on any number of terminal windows without interference.

Code here:

This has also been added to my dotfile project.
