Recursive wildcards to a specified directory

  • 772

Usually, I jump to a directory using a cumbersome way

 $ cd ~/*/*/*/2.Mathematics

the */*/* is clumsy,

How could get it down with recursive globing 

$ cd ~/**/2.Mathematics
-bash: cd: /home/me/**/2.Mathematics: No such file or directory
bash
