In this window, menu ;; items are displayed and labeled with one or two letters. You press a key ;; corresponding to desired choice (or C-g if you wish to cancel the ;; operation) and you are done. ;;; Code: (require 'avy-menu) (require 'cl-lib) (defgroup ace-popup-menu nil "Replace GUI popup menu with something more efficient." :group 'convenience :tag "Ace Popup Menu" :prefix "ace-popup-menu-" :link '(url-link :tag "GitHub" "https://github.com/mrkkrp/ace-popup-menu")) (defcustom ace-popup-menu-show-pane-header nil "Whether to print headers of individual panes in Ace Popup Menu." :tag "Show Pane Header" :type 'boolean) ;;;###autoload (define-minor-mode ace-popup-menu-mode "Toggle the `ace-popup-menu-mode' minor mode.

This minor mode is global. When it's active any call to `x-popup-menu' will result in call of `ace-popup-menu' instead. This function in turn implements a more efficient interface to select an option from a list.
