* Description

Visual buffer switching using a window grid ([[https://github.com/abo-abo/ace-window][ace-window ]]key hints are optional):

[[./images/grid-aw.png]]

* Installation

For manual installation, clone the repository and call:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp

(package-install-file "/path/to/buffer-expose.el")

#+END_SRC

* Config

To use the default bindings for switching buffers with buffer-expose

use buffer-expose-mode:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp

(buffer-expose-mode 1)

#+END_SRC

The default bindings are defined in buffer-expose-mode-map:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp

(defvar buffer-expose-mode-map

  (let ((map (make-sparse-keymap)))

    (define-key map (kbd "") 'buffer-expose)

    (define-key map (kbd "") 'buffer-expose-no-stars)

    (define-key map (kbd "C-c ") 'buffer-expose-current-mode)

    (define-key map (kbd "C-c C-m") 'buffer-expose-major-mode)

    (define-key map (kbd "C-c C-d") 'buffer-expose-dired-buffers)

    (define-key map (kbd "C-c C-*") 'buffer-expose-stars)

    map)

  "Mode map for command `buffer-expose-mode'.")

#+END_SRC

There are user options to customize which buffers are shown and you can easily

write your own command, like this:

#+BEGIN_SRC elisp

(defun my-expose-command (&optional max)

  (interactive "P")

  (buffer-expose-show-buffers

     max [ ]))

#+END_SRC
