;;; jg-quicknav.el --- Quickly navigate the file system to find a file. ;; Copyright (C) 2013-2015 Jeff Gran ;; Author: Jeff Gran <jeff@jeffgran.com> ;; URL: https://github.com/jeffgran/jg-quicknav ;; Created: 3 Mar 2013 ;; Keywords: navigation ;; Version: 1.4.0 ;; Package-Requires: ((s "1.9.0") (cl-lib "0.5")) ;; This file is not part of GNU Emacs. ;;; Commentary: ;; A quick file-finder for emacs. Navigate up and down directories to find a file. ;; ;; Like ido-find-file, lusty-explorer, helm/anything, etc. But none of them ;; did quite what I wanted so I created this. The goal is to navigate the file ;; system as fast as possible. Like a much faster way of doing the... ;; ;; 1. cd <foo> ;; 2. ls ;; 3. goto 1 ;; 4. <open file> ;; ;; ...loop in the shell. ;; ;; Usage: - assign `jg-quicknav' to a key, and use it. ;; - buffer will show you the directory listing for the current default directory ;; (reminder: if you're in a file buffer, that will be the directory ;; that file is in. If you're in shell-mode, eshell, ansi-term, dired, etc, ;; that will be the correct current directory). ;; - type some letters to filter down the results. C-n and C-p to change selection ;; - RET on a file to open the file, or RET on a directory to `jg-quicknav' that dir. ;; - C-, to go "up a directory", after which you can go "forward" with C-. ;; - Drop into dired with C-/ ;; - I tried to make it easy to rebind the bindings. I rebind everything all the time ;; so I was sure others would not like my key choices. see below. ;; ;; ;; ;; You'll likely want to change some of the key bindings. Just redefine the keys ;; on jg-quicknav-mode-map. For example, if you use C-n for something else and want ;; to move up and down lines while navigating with M-n instead, use this: ;; ;; (define-key jg-quicknav-mode-map (kbd "C-n") nil) ;; (define-key jg-quicknav-mode-map (kbd "M-n") 'jg-quicknav-next) ;; ;; ;; TODO/IDEAS: ;; - better support for dirs with many files in them ;; - ensure-cursor-visible or something in case selection is off the screen ;; - also page-down and page-up support for long lists ;; - maybe add an option to toggle showing only files/only dirs? ;; - shell-mode plugin to "cd" to a directory chosen via jgqn? ;; - secondary-highlight for previous dir after going 'updir' ;; - different face/color for executables? or just the "*"? ;; - and different face for file extensions? (just like dired+) ;; - add a jg-quick-buffer-switcher too? ;;; History: ;; 2013-03-03 Initial release v 1.0.0 ;; 2013-03-03 v 1.0.1 ;; - use overriding-local-map in minibuffer to make sure ;; the jgqn keys override other minor modes during navigation ;; - bugfix: clear out "history" in between sessions ;; 2013-03-05 v 1.1.0 ;; - fixed weirdness when going "back" when already at the root directory ;; - added `jg-quicknav-find-file' -- key command to open a buffer for a new file ;; with the contents of the minibuffer as the filename, in the same directory ;; currently being shown ;; - added `jg-quicknav-dired' -- key command to drop into dired in the same directory ;; currently being shown ;; 2013-03-09 v 1.1.1 ;; - fixed bug: opening multiple files of the same name doesn't work ;; - fixed bug: doesn't show / when / is the jg-quicknav-default-dir ;; - fixed bug: use save-window-excursion instead of delete-window when session ;; ends. this ensures your window configuration will look the same before and ;; after the jgqn session ;; - fixed bug: when updating results, clamp the selection index to the number ;; of results so it doesn't disappear off the end ;; 2013-03-23 v 1.2.0 ;; - added jg-quicknav-dired. use it to fuzzy-filter a dired buffer ;; - added (and made default) different behavior for C-g. Now it will clear the ;; minibuffer input (if any) the first time you press it, and then quit the ;; quicknav session the second time. To go back to previous behavior (C-g ;; always quits), set "C-g" to 'jg-quicknav-minibuffer-exit instead of ;; 'jg-quicknav-minibuffer-clear-then-exit in the jg-quicknav-mode-map ;; 2013-03-29 v 1.2.1 ;; - fixed small annoyance: if you narrow to zero results then delete, ;; clamp selection index to 1 otherwise it disappears until you move it again. ;; 2013-04-14 v 1.3.0 ;; - Now works remotely! You must be using tramp. This means that if you are ;; visiting a remote file, or if you are in an ssh shell backed by tramp, ;; you can use jg-quicknav and it will show the listing of the corresponding ;; remote directory. ;; - fixed annoying blinking selection line when list is empty ;; 2013-04-28 v 1.3.1 ;; - fixed bug: dir with space in name results in error. wrap `cd` command in quotes. ;; 2014-09-12 v 1.3.2 ;; - fixed bug: use expand-file-name so we always start with a full absolute path ;; - fixed bug: concat pwd when visiting file so two files in different directories ;; with the same name don't get confused. ;; 2015-02-11 v 1.4.0 ;; - no new code, just renamed a bunch of functions for melpa compliance. ;; - everything now prefixed with jg-quicknav- (previously some were jgqn-) ;; - prefixed stolen functions too, to prevent conflicts. ;; - internal-only functions prefixed with jg-quicknav-- ;; 2015-02-16 v 1.4.1 ;; - add (require 'tramp) to make sure tramp is loaded. doesn't work without it.
