Usually to change a directory the user is required to enter a command like, e.g., cd /usr/local/bin, possibly with the aid of shell completion. In many cases this is a tedious task: shell completion shows all entries, including files, when we're only interested in directories and the full specification of our intented directory may eventually require many keyboard actions. When multiple expansions are available xd offers a list of alternatives from which the user may select an option by simply pressing an associated key. Directories that are never selected by the user may be ignored using directives in xd's configuration file. To create the program from its sources, either descend into the xd directory, or unpack a created archive, cd into its top-level directory and follow the instructions provided in the INSTALL file found there. Alternatively, binary ready-to-install versions of xd are available in verious Linux distributions, in particular Debian. See, e.g., https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=xd&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all Gitlab's web-pages for xd are here: https://fbb-git.gitlab.io/xd/
