Just had a great (and dead-simple) idea, and I do *not* know why I didn't think of this 20 years ago:
(in my ~.bashrc2*):
workingdirls="$(ls ~/working)"
if [[ $workingdirls ]]; then
echo
echo "*** Contents of working directory ***"
echo "$workingdirls"
fi
You can put anything there, including symlinks to projects you're working on and don't want to forget.
*I use a separate .bashrc2 file so it can be synced across systems without overwriting the distro stock config in .bashrc.
D'oh...
I just realised that "workingdirls" (i.e. working directory ls)
...looks a *lot* like "workinggirls" (i.e. virinoj de la nokto) from a distance.
Oops.

@fc501b69 Sorry for a stupid question, but what does it do? It looks to me like just ls on a fixed directory with some other seemingly unnecessary complications.
