I want to write a small function to open files using iswitchb
functions, using the recent file names list as input. Somewhat similar
to what I do in the following defun:
(defun my-switch-to-bookmark (bname)
"Interactively switch to bookmark as `iswitchb' does."
(interactive (list (flet ((iswitchb-make-buflist
(default)
(require 'bookmark)
(setq iswitchb-buflist
(bookmark-all-names))))
(iswitchb-read-buffer "Jump to bookmark: "))))
(bookmark-jump bname))
So, I want something exactly like the above, but instead of
`bookmark-jump' I want to use `find-file' and instead of
`bookmark-all-names' I want to get hold of the file history.
The file history that I see in the File -> Open Recently Visited would
be best, but I guess the minibuffer history for `find-file' would work
too.
Use `recentf-list' (library recentf.el).
See `icicle-recent-file' for an example:
