About:
Ondir is a small program that allows you to automatically execute shell scripts when entering or leaving a directory. It integrates with your shell to provide a seamless way to manage environment variables and project-specific settings. This tool helps maintain a clean and organized workflow without manual script execution.

Key Features:

Automatic script execution on directory change
Support for both entering and leaving directories
Lightweight and shell-agnostic integration
Simple directory-based configuration

Use Cases:

Managing project-specific environment variables
Activating virtual environments automatically
Setting up project-specific aliases or functions

Alternatives:

direnv – direnv is more feature-rich with environment variable loading, while Ondir is simpler and focuses on script execution.
autoenv – autoenv is similar but Ondir provides more control with enter/leave script separation.
