Subject: Dired like functionality on a custom text file
Date: Mon, 19 May 2008 11:38:31 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <683a41e6-1009-4c2e-9354-b748c6f7ad95@t12g2000prg.googlegroups.com> (raw)
I have a situation where I have a lot of common files i need to edit
but they are all in various directories spread across my hard drive.
I was trying to come up with a way where I could make a text file that
has all the paths to the files I commonly need and somehow open that
file into a dired like mode. Is there anyway I can do this, or even
alternatively possibly easily pass the current line my cursor is on in
that file to the mini buffer when I put in the visit command?
