Issue found where directory names with spaces do not work as subdirectories with chd.
Ex: chd test/'te st' does not work.

Currently if you use the directory names 'help', 'list', 'add', and 'delete' they wont be able to be chd to, but will be listed under supported directories.

A simple fix would be to ban these names.

A more complex but robust fix would be to make the commands flags.

When installed in a root directory chd add $HOME to the front, thus pointing to a non existent directorry.

If a directory in the supported directories list no longer exists then give the user a proper error, rather than a cd error, when they attempt to chd to it.

Also add a function to list where upon usage of 'chd list' it will notify the user of any directories in the list that no longer exist.

Title is self explanatory. chd fails when their is a space in the directory name being added.

Taking dots as input and getting+saving the absolute directory path would be a good quality of life improvement.

Example:
'chd doc' changes directory to ~/Documents.
~/Documents has a directory called 'folder' in it.
'chd doc/folder' should take you to ~/Documents/folder.

Would be useful for skipping the cd step after using chd if that directory isn't frequently used enough to be added to chd itself.

*EDIT: See comments.
