Linux style pushd in windows

I am happy using pushd and dirs -v in Linux. pushd can store directories into a stack while dirs -v can show items in directory stacks with index. I can then use pushd +n to switch to any index in the stack without remove it from stack. This saves me a lot of time switching between various directories.

Windows also has pushd. But it is lacking of dirs command. To show items in stack, pushd without any argument can be used, however, there is no index, I can neither find a way to jump to an arbitrary entry. The only thing I can do in Windows is use popd to change directory to the top of the stack one by one.

Is there any facility I can use in windows providing the functionality of Linux version pushd and dirs -v?

Well, since no one answer this question, I wrote a script set myself to achieve this in windows windows-cds.

Also I find that there is a similar cross-platform utility autojump which provide more comprehensive functionalities, but the setup is a bit complex.

So I am happy to stick to my own wheels :)
