Excellent idea! I especially like the idea of using the `chpwd()` hook to display the current tasks when entering a new directory. I must steal this idea and Bashify it.

I like seeing a listing when I cd.

    cd() { builtin cd $* && ls; }

I cannot recall if that is right (on my phone) but that's the idea in bash at least.

I just tried it; it works.

Very nice; thanks

Always use "$@" (including the quotes) instead of $* when passing on command-line arguments.

If your directory name contains a space, the above function won’t work. Note that putting $* in quotes would be interpreted as one argument, so that wouldn’t work if you specified an option along with a directory name.

Haha this was the first thing I prototyped into my bashrc to incorporate the idea. I used the suggested "$@" myself.
