popup-switcher provides (yet another) convenient way to switch buffers, optional navigation possibility through functions/methods and any other kind of switching you like. It's easy to use and extend for custom purposes. It uses popup lib for better sense.
Add MELPA (if not yet) to your package-archives
list:
(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/"))
(package-initialize)
Then you can install popup-switcher with the following command:
M-x package-install [RET] popup-switcher [RET]
Load popup-switcher:
(require 'popup-switcher)
Add a hotkey to psw-switch-<X>
to you taste (for the full list of predefined
switching functions see
Usage section), e.g.:
(global-set-key [f2] 'psw-switch-buffer)
Set maximum number of visible items in popup menus
(setq psw-popup-menu-max-length 15)
Non-nil psw-in-window-center
means horizontal locate popup menu in the window
center. Locate popup menu in the fill-column
center otherwise (by default).
(setq psw-in-window-center t)
Non-nil psw-use-flx
enables flx
fuzzy matching engine for isearch in popup
menus. flx-ido is required in this case, it can
be installed by your favorite approach. E.g. by MEPLA
:
M-x package-install [RET] flx-ido [RET]
(setq psw-use-flx t)
Non-nil psw-mark-modified-buffers
means mark modified buffers with star char
(*
) expect special beffers like *Messages*
any time you call
psw-switch-buffer
.
To navigate through functions/methods names you should add the most recent
CEDET
and load eassist
lib. This feature is optional, and popup-switcher can
operate without CEDET
(and therefore without navigation possibility through
functions/methods).
;; Activate semantic
(semantic-mode 1)
;; Load contrib library
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/cedet/contrib/")
(require 'eassist)
(eval-after-load "eassist"
'(global-set-key [f3] 'psw-switch-function))
List of interactive functions:

, you can kill selected
buffer by pressing C-d or C-k.
