Pretty tabbar, autohide, use both tabbar/ruler
* Introduction Tabbar ruler is an Emacs package that allows both the tabbar and the ruler to be used together. In addition it allows auto-hiding of the menu-bar and tool-bar. Tabbar appearance based on reverse engineering Aquaemacs code and changing to my preferences, and Emacs Wiki. Tabbar/Ruler integration is new. Tabbar should be active on mouse move. Ruler should be active on self-insert commands. Also allows auto-hiding of toolbar and menu. To use this, put the library in your load path and use (setq tabbar-ruler-global-tabbar t) ; If you want tabbar (setq tabbar-ruler-global-ruler t) ; if you want a global ruler (setq tabbar-ruler-popup-menu t) ; If you want a popup menu. (setq tabbar-ruler-popup-toolbar t) ; If you want a popup toolbar (setq tabbar-ruler-popup-scrollbar t) ; If you want to only show the ; scroll bar when your mouse is moving. (require 'tabbar-ruler) * Changing how tabbar groups files/buffers The default behavior for tabbar-ruler is to group the tabs by frame. You can change this back to the old-behavior by: (tabbar-ruler-group-buffer-groups) or by issuing the following code: (setq tabbar-buffer-groups-function 'tabbar-buffer-groups) In addition, you can also group by projectile project easily by: (tabbar-ruler-group-by-projectile-project) * Adding key-bindings to tabbar-ruler You can add key-bindings to change the current tab. The easiest way to add the bindings is to add a key like: (global-set-key (kbd "C-c t") 'tabbar-ruler-move) After that, all you would need to press is Control+c t and then the arrow keys will allow you to change the buffer quite easily. To exit the buffer movement you can press enter or space. * Known issues the left arrow is text instead of an image.
