Hi Gerardo, Apart from what others have suggested, what you can do if you have a fixed list of files you want to quickly access, you could manually define keybindings for them. I have four main files where I capture things, so I define a submenu that allows me to access them quickly:
(note: I got this idea originally from Sacha Chua's https://sachachua.com/blog/2015/02/learn-take-notes-efficiently-org-mode/) First, I define a helper function to define keybindings that open files. Note that this requires lexical binding to be enabled, so that the =lambda= creates a closure, otherwise the keybindings don't work. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (defun zz/add-file-keybinding (key file &optional desc) (let ((key key) (file file) (desc desc)) (map! :desc (or desc file) key (lambda () (interactive) (find-file file))))) #+end_src (note #2: the map! macro is Doom Emacs-specific, should be replaced with `bind-key` or equivalent if you are not using Doom) Now I define keybindings to access my commonly-used org files. #+begin_src emacs-lisp (zz/add-file-keybinding "C-c z w" "~/Work/work.org.gpg" "work.org") (zz/add-file-keybinding "C-c z i" "~/org/ideas.org" "ideas.org") (zz/add-file-keybinding "C-c z p" "~/org/projects.org" "projects.org") (zz/add-file-keybinding "C-c z d" "~/org/diary.org" "diary.org") #+end_src This results in a submenu bound to "C-c z" which looks like this, and which allows me to quickly open my files: [image: image.png] --Diego On Sun, Nov 22, 2020 at 11:01 AM Gerardo Moro <gerardomor...@gmail.com> wrote: > Basically that :) > I'm looking for some setup that allows me to open a menu with a list of > files and shortcut access keys to open them. > > Probably somebody has done this before. > > Thank you, > GM >
