gpicker - Summary
This project is not part of the GNU Project.
gpicker is a program that allows you to quickly and conveniently pick file in a (possibly very large) project. You type significant letters of file name (typically from the start of words) and gpicker provides you with a list of files you most likely mean to pick. The program filters and orders project's list of files in real-time as you type.
To place 'correct' matches on top gpicker uses sophisticated scoring heuristics. This scoring heuristic tries to capture user's intention and effectively 'un-abbreviate' pattern, rather than simply order results by edit distance. Scoring is implemented by efficient dynamic programming algorithm which makes filtration and ordering very fast.
It was inspired by class finding facility of IntelliJ IDEA and 'Command-T' feature of TextMate, but it's in many ways much better. It s language-agnostic and supports matching directory names too.
It is usable as a standalone program, but it was created to be used by editors/IDEs. Currently Emacs & VIM intergration is provided. With netbeans and gedit integrations out-of-tree.
