Alt-Tab | Swap with header file |
To get from a .h file to the corresponding .c or .cpp file quickly, use the
SwapWithHeader shortcut. If you have a .h file open and use this shortcut, Eddie
will look at a all it's open windows to try to find a corresponding .c, .cc, .cp,
.cpp, etc. file. If it doesn't find one, it will look in the directory of the .h
file. If you use SwapWithHeader in a .c, .cpp, .cc, .cp, etc. file, the .h file
will be opened.
Note that SwapWithHeader will also try to find a corresponding header for a .l
(Lex) or .y (Yacc) file.
Alt-Win-D | Open selection |
Alt-D | Smart Open selection |
If you select a file name, a partial file path or a full file path and use the Open selection shortcut, Eddie will try to open the selected file.
If you place a cursor anywhere inside a file name, partial file path or full file path and use the Smart Open selection shortcut, Eddie will try to expand the selection to include the entire path and open the selected file. If a line number, separated from the file name by a colon follows, Eddie will select the corresponding line in the resulting opened document. When compiling files with gcc Smart Open selection is your friend - this is the easiest way to get to an error in a source file. Just place the cursor anywhere in the file name, hit Alt-D and the file will open with the respective line selected.
In the following example we are trying to compile the file test.cpp using gcc. In the file the variable b is not declared and gcc gives us an appropriate error message:
Place the cursor in the file name in the first error message and hit Alt-D. Eddie expands the selection, including the line number, opens the respective file if needed and selects the line with the error.
Due to it's versatility you will most likely always use Smart Open selection, Open selection is only usefull when opening files with spaces in the path.
Alt-0 | Open worksheet |
Activates the Worksheet window. If you do not have a Worksheet open, Eddie will try to open it. If you do not have a Worksheet document, Eddie will ask you, if you would like to create one.
