An Emacs extension to integrate Fasd:
Forked from https://github.com/emacsmirror/fasd, but support tramp path.
Fasd (pronounced similar to βfastβ) is a command-line productivity booster. Fasd offers quick access to files and directories for POSIX shells. It is inspired by tools like autojump, z and v. Fasd keeps track of files and directories you have accessed, so that you can quickly reference them in the command line.
quelpa
is at https://github.com/quelpa/quelpa
(quelpa '(fasd :repo "steckerhalter/emacs-fasd" :fetcher github))
Since the recipe is stored in melpa this also works:
(quelpa 'fasd)
Interactively: M-x quelpa fasd RET
.
You can install fasd.el
using the packages on Melpa.
Make sure you have something like the following in your Emacs startup file (~/.emacs.d/init.el
, or ~/.emacs
):
(add-to-list 'package-archives
'("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/"))
To make that take effect, either evaluate that elisp expression or restart Emacs.
Then use M-x package-list-packages, select fasd
from the list by pressing i, then press x to execute the changes. At that point, the package will be installed.
Example recipe for el-get:
(:name fasd
:type github
:url "https://github.com/steckerhalter/emacs-fasd"
:depends (grizzl)
:postinit (progn
(global-set-key (kbd "C-h C-/") 'fasd-find-file)
(global-fasd-mode 1)))
Add a shortcut key for fasd-find-file
and enable the global-fasd-mode
which makes sure that opening files or directories in Emacs updates the fasd database.
(global-set-key (kbd "C-h C-/") 'fasd-find-file)
(global-fasd-mode 1)
Calling fasd-find-file
with a prefix argument of
C-u
lists only directoriesM--
lists only files
With no prefix it shows files and directories.
Use the customize interface:
M-x customize-group RET fasd RET
Usually fasd
will prompt for a initial query. To turn that off and get all results directly, set fasd-enable-initial-prompt
to nil
.
By default the standard completing-read-function
will be used, which could be using helm
or ido
depending on what you are using. To use e.g. ido
explicitly set it to ido-completing-read
. Previously the default was grizzl-completing-read
but the dependency on grizzl
has been removed. If you still want to use grizzl
, you need to install the package and set the completing-read-function
accordingly.
By default the fasd
search parameter is -a
which searches files and directories, you can customize this with the fasd-standard-search
option.
