Consider this path: arch/x86/boot/main.c
Can you type the file name first: "main.c", then add "x86" to get the correct
file above? I'm pretty sure ido+flx can't do that, but maybe I'm missing
something.
With Helm, you can simply specify "mai x86" and it narrows to 3 candidates with
the above path at the top. The file is in Linux kernel source.
Maybe you misunderstood my statement about precise remembering project
structure. What I meant was you have to remember the correct path ordering, and
that requires you to be familiar with the directory structure. Whlie in Helm,
I'm completely new to a directory and simply know nothing about directory
structure. With Helm, I can start pop up questions like "is there a main.c that
is relate to x86 arch?" and so on.
