ido-mode使用

To switch between buffers, press “C-x b”, then:

• use C-s (next) or C-r (previous)to move through the list.

• [Tab] display possible completion in a buffer (or visit the buffer if there is only one possible completion).

• use C-f to fall back to find file (without ido-mode) orC-b to fall back to switch to buffer (without ido-mode).

To find a file, press “C-x C-f”.

• type some characters appearing in the file name, RET to choose the file or directory in the front of the list.
• C-s (next) orC-r (previous) to move through the list.
• [Tab] - display possible completion in a buffer (or open the file or go down the directory if there is only one possible completion).
• RET - type to go down inside the directory in front of the list.
• [backspace] - go up to the parent directory.
• // - go to the root directory.
• ~/ - go to the home directory.
• C-f - to go back temporarily to the normal find-file.
• C-d - enter Dired for this directory (used to be C-x C-d in older versions)
• C-j- create a new file named with the text you entered (note: this is needed if the text you entered matches an existing file, because RET would open the existing one)

To restrict the list after a first filtering:

• type some characters appearing in the buffer/file name(say .cpp)
• type C-SPC (C-@)【一般C-SPC用于了输入法切换，此处使用C-@】
• continue as normal with a list containing only the filtered names

Recently visited directories:

• type M-p and M-n to change to previous/next directories from the history
• M-s to search for a file matching your input
• M-k to remove the current directory from the history
• directories are added to the history by navigating inside them via RET

The documentation for these keys is available via

• M-x describe-function RET ido-find-file RET
• C-h f ido-find-file RET
