;;; Commentary:
;;
;; Command find-file-at-point replaces find-file.  With a prefix, it
;; behaves exactly like find-file.  Without a prefix, it first tries
;; to guess a default file or URL from the text around the point
;; (`ffap-require-prefix' swaps these behaviors).  This is useful for
;; following references in situations such as mail or news buffers,
;; README's, MANIFEST's, and so on.  Submit bugs or suggestions with
;; M-x ffap-bug.
;;
;; For the default installation, add this line to your init file:
;;
;; (ffap-bindings)                      ; do default key bindings
;;
;; ffap-bindings makes the following global key bindings:
;;
;; C-x C-f              find-file-at-point (abbreviated as ffap)
;; C-x C-r              ffap-read-only
;; C-x C-v              ffap-alternate-file
;;
;; C-x d                dired-at-point
;; C-x C-d              ffap-list-directory
;;
;; C-x 4 f              ffap-other-window
;; C-x 4 r              ffap-read-only-other-window
;; C-x 4 d              ffap-dired-other-window
;;
;; C-x 5 f              ffap-other-frame
;; C-x 5 r              ffap-read-only-other-frame
;; C-x 5 d              ffap-dired-other-frame
;;
;; S-mouse-3     ffap-at-mouse
;; C-S-mouse-3   ffap-menu
;;
;; ffap-bindings also adds hooks to make the following local bindings
;; in vm, gnus, and rmail:
;;
;; M-l         ffap-next, or ffap-gnus-next in gnus (l == "link")
;; M-m         ffap-menu, or ffap-gnus-menu in gnus (m == "menu")
;;
;; If you do not like these bindings, modify the variable
;; `ffap-bindings', or write your own.
;;
;; If you use ange-ftp, browse-url, complete, efs, or w3, it is best
;; to load or autoload them before ffap.  If you use ff-paths, load it
;; afterwards.  Try apropos {C-h a ffap RET} to get a list of the many
;; option variables.  In particular, if ffap is slow, try these:
;;
;; (setq ffap-alist nil)                ; faster, dumber prompting
;; (setq ffap-machine-p-known 'accept)  ; no pinging
;; (setq ffap-url-regexp nil)           ; disable URL features in ffap
;; (setq ffap-shell-prompt-regexp nil)  ; disable shell prompt stripping
;;
;; ffap uses `browse-url' (if found, else `w3-fetch') to fetch URL's.
;; For a hairier `ffap-url-fetcher', try ffap-url.el (same ftp site).
;; Also, you can add `ffap-menu-rescan' to various hooks to fontify
;; the file and URL references within a buffer.

\f
;;; Change Log:
;;
;; The History and Contributors moved to ffap.LOG (same ftp site),
;; which also has some old examples and commentary from ffap 1.5.

\f
;;; Todo list:
;; * use kpsewhich
;; * let "/dir/file#key" jump to key (tag or regexp) in /dir/file
;; * find file of symbol if TAGS is loaded (like above)
;; * break long menus into multiple panes (like imenu?)
;; * notice node in "(dired)Virtual Dired" (quotes, parentheses, whitespace)
;; * notice "machine.dom blah blah blah dir/file" (how?)
;; * as w3 becomes standard, rewrite to rely more on its functions
;; * regexp options for ffap-string-at-point, like font-lock (MCOOK)
;; * v19: could replace `ffap-locate-file' with a quieter `locate-library'
;; * handle "$(VAR)" in Makefiles
;; * use the font-lock machinery
