When you find speedbar nice then maybe you find ECB nice too - maybe even more
nice (or less ;-)... ECB is the Emacs Code Browser which let you browse files
and code-contents.
>From the homepage at http://ecb.sourceforge.net:
ECB stands for "Emacs Code Browser" and is a source code browser for (X)Emacs.
It is a global minor-mode which displays a couple of windows that can be used
to browse directories, files and file-contents like methods and variables. It
supports source-code parsing for semantic-supported languages like Java, C,
C++, Elisp and Scheme as well as for source-types supported "only" by imenu or
etags (e.g. perl, TeX, LaTeX etc.).
Here is an ascii-screenshot of what ECB offers you:
------------------------------------------------------------------
| | |
| Directories | |
| | |
|--------------| |
| | |
| Sources | |
| | |
|--------------| Edit-window(s) |
| | (can be splitted in two windows) |
| Methods/Vars | |
| | |
|--------------| |
| | |
| History | |
| | |
------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Compilation-window (optional) |
| |
------------------------------------------------------------------
This is only one example-layout - ECB offers a lot of different layouts.
Just go to the screenshot section of ECB-homepage and see if you like it...
Ciao,
