I've always enjoyed the tab completion emacs provides when searching for files. It feels like a working tree generated on demand. Also, I've found that buffers scale much nicer to many files than tabs. Free yourself from the GUI!

Hi all

I am using OCaml for a project with 20 - 50 files inside. Also I am using emacs + tuareg.

Syntax highlight is well done by tuareg and generally it is good using emacs for one file editing.

However, for the project files, I need to frequently switch between files together with folders, how can i use emacs as also a project manager such as eclipse? How can I have a file / project tree there just like Eclipse does?

Also how do people manage a huge bunch of files (just like core library or batteries-included) effectively? It seems emacs is good for single file or simple project editing, but not good at managing a complex project.

thanks
