8.3 Rolo Keys

Use the {e} key to edit the entry at point within the rolodex source file.

After a rolodex search is performed, point is left in the rolodex match buffer, `*Rolodex*', which uses wrolo-mode to simplify browsing many rolodex matches. Press {?} when in the match buffer for a summary of available keys.

If your Emacs version supports textual highlighting, each search match is highlighted for quick, visual location. {TAB} moves point forward to successive spans of text which match the search expression. {M-TAB} or {r} moves point backward to earlier matches. These keys allow you to quickly find the matching entry of most interest to you if your search expression failed to narrow the matches sufficiently.

If you want to extend the match expression with some more characters to find a particular entry, use {M-s}, which performs an interactive search forward for the match expression. You can add or delete characters to this expression to find different occurences. {C-r} will reverse the direction of the search.

Single key outlining commands are also available for browsing matches. If your search matches a large number of entries, use {t} to get a top-level overview of all the entries. Each entry is collapsed so that only its first line shows. Press {s} to show (expand) the entry at point. Use {h} to hide (collapse) the entry again. Press {a} to expand all entries in the buffer.

Many other keys are defined to help you move through matching entries.

b
Move to the previous entry at the same level as the current entry.
f
Move to the next entry at the same level as the current entry.
n
Move to the next entry at any level.
p
Move to the previous entry at any level.
u
Move the the previous entry one level up.
.
<
Move to the beginning of the buffer.
,
>
Move to the end of the buffer.
DEL
Scroll backward a windowful.
SPC
Scroll forward a windowful.

Once you have found an entry of interest and you want to remove the rolodex match buffer, use {q} to quit. This will restore your current frame to its state prior to the rolodex search.
