Navigating through the code

There are several ways to find what you are looking for in a code base.

• Ctrl-Shift-M open module

  Opens a dialog where you can start entering the name of the module you want to open. Usually a few characters are enough, select it from the list and press enter.

• Ctrl-Shift-R open resource

  Same thing, but works for any file (text, java, asn1, idl or whatever).

• Ctrl-H search

  The Erlang search lets you search for functions/records/macros, as references, definitions or both.

• Ctrl-G and Ctrl-Shift-G find references/definitions

  Shortcuts for searching references and definitions for the element at the cursor, in the current editor.

• F3 and Ctrl-click open definition

  Go directly to the definition of the element at the cursor.

• Ctrl-O quick outline

  Opens a module outline where you can start typing to filter the elements you are interested in.

• Ctrl-F, Ctrl-J, Ctrl-Shift-J text search

  Textual search in the current file. The latter two perform incremental search for the current selected text or if none, for text being entered.
