.Emacs #5 - Managing and Finding Buffers

Efficiently managing buffers will become more important as we learn new ways to open a lot of them. We'll look at one enhancement for switching between buffers (ido-mode), a trick for dealing with multiple buffers with the same name, and some other tips. With these mastered, you should be able to work with hundreds of open buffers (something that would be unthinkable with a tabbed interface). Commands introduced: C-x C-b M-x clean-buffer-list M-x ido-mode M-x occur M-x multi-occur-in-matching-buffers Extensions introduced: ido-mode uniquify Customizations introduced: Ido Mode Ido Enable Flex Matching Uniquify Buffer Name Style All episodes:    • .Emacs Tutorials   Follow along on GitHub at https://github.com/jekor/.emacs Notices and updates on Twitter at @jekor   / jekor
