Emacs: demo of outline-minor-mode and imenu
Raw link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHk3FbieW0w
In this video I demonstrate two built-in tools for navigating large files in a manner that is both efficient and convenient.
-
outline-minor-mode
can be combined with a major mode for programming, such asemacs-lisp-mode
, to produce headings that may then be expanded or contracted (same idea as with Org mode). -
imenu
presents a dynamically-generated index with points of interest in the given buffer (e.g. headings), allowing you to jump to one using completion methods.
Both tools are complemented by other packages as well as my own functions and minor extras.
Check my dotemacs for all the code and relevant documentation.
