Ido Numbered Mode

Add numbered selection to ido-mode.

Buffer: {0 .emacs | 1 *Messages* | 2 *scratch* | 3 *shell*}

If you press a number (like "1") it will go to that buffer (i.e. Messages in the example above).

0 does not go to the 0th buffer (just hit enter)

Installation

In order to turn this on, you must use ido-mode, and turn on ido-mode first.

e.g. your .emacs should have

(require 'ido-mode)
(ido-mode 1)
(require 'ido-numbered-mode)
(ido-numbered-mode 1)

Detailed Instructions

Go to the directory containing your emacs configuration files

$ cd .emacs.d

Clone this repository

$ git clone https://github.com/sstraust/ido-numbered-mode.git

Open up your emacs configuration file (usually ~/.emacs)

Add this to the top of your .emacs file, to make sure the code is on the load path:

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/ido-numbered-mode/")

Add this to your .emacs file to turn on ido-mode and ido-numbered-mode

(require 'ido-mode)
(ido-mode 1)
(require 'ido-numbered-mode)
(ido-numbered-mode 1)

Note

This caches ido-completions, so you could get wonky behavior if you turn it on and off frequently and have other packages that modify ido-completions (e.g. ido-vertical-mode)
