Unlike these<br /> two, Nav only shows the contents of a single directory at a time. Nav<br /> can be run painlessly in terminals, where [[Speed bar]] either fails on its<br /> attempt to make a new frame or is hidden. Nav's terminal-friendliness<br /> comes from running in the frame where it was started, keeping window<br /> management simple. The Nav key bindings are also simple -- each<br /> key command is a single keystroke long.<br /> <br /> Unlike [[speed bar]], nav doesn't make use of etags.<br /> <br /> = Install =<br /> <br /> Download it : http://code.google.com/p/emacs-nav/ (it is not included in [[ELPA]]).<br /> <br /> Put something like this in your ~/.emacs:<br /> <br /> (add-to-list 'load-path &quot;/directory/containing/nav/&quot;)<br /> (require 'nav)<br /> (nav-disable-overeager-window-splitting)<br /> ;; Optional: set up a quick key to toggle nav<br /> ;; (global-set-key [f9] 'nav-toggle)<br /> <br /> = Usage =<br /> Type M-x nav to start navigating.<br /> <br /> In the nav window, hit ? to get help on keyboard shortcuts.<br /> <br /> To set options for Nav, type M-x customize, then select Applications,<br /> Nav.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Third Party Package]]<br /> [[Category:Navigation]]<br /> [[Category:Visualize]]<br /> [[Category:Convenience]]</div>
