This listing +will have both directories and filtered files in it. You can then load +files into your emacs frame, or expand the files to display all the +tags that are in them and jump to those tags. You can also expand +multiple directories into your speedbar frame. + +Using Shift with the mouse is considered a "power click" which will +ignore any cached data that might be related to the navigation +desired. When loading a file, a power click will pull that file into a +new frame. + +For PC users with two button mice, a button1 double click acts as the +mouse-2 click most emacs users are familiar with. + +Additional keyboard commands are available for friendly file IO +functions such as Rename/Copy/Delete, Loading lisp files, and +compiling lisp files. + +Speedbar is more than just file browsing, however. Speedbar is a +generalized browser. Speedbar supports: + +* multiple tagging methods for files (such as etags, imenu, and + semantic) + +* multiple major display modes (such as buffer lists, project lists, + and EIEIO class browsing,) + +* multiple minor display modes that appear when you view special + files, such as Info pages, or read mail with RMAIL. |
