  @section Making and Using a Speedbar Frame
  @cindex speedbar
  
!   An Emacs frame can have a @dfn{speedbar}, which is a vertical window
! that serves as a scrollable menu of files you could visit and tags
! within those files.  To create a speedbar, type @kbd{M-x speedbar}; this
! creates a speedbar window for the selected frame.  From then on, you can
! click on a file name in the speedbar to visit that file in the
! corresponding Emacs frame, or click on a tag name to jump to that tag in
! the Emacs frame.
! 
!   Initially the speedbar lists the immediate contents of the current
! directory, one file per line.  Each line also has a box, @samp{[+]} or
! @samp{<+>}, that you can click on with @kbd{Mouse-2} to ``open up'' the
! contents of that item.  If the line names a directory, opening it adds
  the contents of that directory to the speedbar display, underneath the
! directory's own line.  If the line lists an ordinary file, opening it up
! adds a list of the tags in that file to the speedbar display.  When a
! file is opened up, the @samp{[+]} changes to @samp{[-]}; you can click
! on that box to ``close up'' that file (hide its contents).
  
    Some major modes, including Rmail mode, Info, and GUD, have
  specialized ways of putting useful items into the speedbar for you to

  @section Making and Using a Speedbar Frame
  @cindex speedbar
  
!   The @dfn{Speedbar} is a special frame that is used to summarize
! information related to other buffers.  Normally, it displays a menu of
! files you could visit and tags within those files.  Type @kbd{M-x
! speedbar} to enable the speedbar and associate it with the current
! frame (which is called the speedbar's @dfn{attached frame}).
! 
!   Currently, only one speedbar is supported at a time.  To dismiss the
! speedbar, select it and type @kbd{q} or @kbd{M-x speedbar}, or delete
! the frame or window normally.  You can then attach the speedbar to a
! different frame by calling @kbd{M-x speedbar} from that frame.
! 
!   When you initially launch the speedbar, it starts in @dfn{File
! Display Mode}, showing the current directory of the selected window of
! the attached frame, one file per line.  Clicking on a file name visits
! that file in the attached frame, and clicking on a directory name
! shows that directory in the speedbar (@pxref{Mouse References}).  Each
! line also has a box, @samp{[+]} or @samp{<+>}, that you can click on
! to @dfn{expand} the contents of that item.  Expanding a directory adds
  the contents of that directory to the speedbar display, underneath the
! directory's own line.  Expanding an ordinary file adds a list of the
! tags in that file to the speedbar display; you can click on a tag name
! to jump to that tag in the attached frame.  When a file or directory
! is expanded, the @samp{[+]} changes to @samp{[-]}; you can click on
! that box to @dfn{contract} the item, hiding its contents.
! 
!   You can also use the keyboard to navigate the speedbar.  Typing
! @kbd{RET} is equivalent to clicking the item on the current line, and
! @kbd{SPC} expands or contracts the item.  @kbd{U} displays the parent
! directory of the current directory.  To copy, delete, or rename the
! file on the current line, type @kbd{C}, @kbd{D}, and @kbd{R}
! respectively.  To create a new directory, type @kbd{M}.
! 
!   The speedbar is not limited to showing files.  Type @kbd{b} to enter
! @dfn{Buffer Display Mode}, in which the speedbar displays a list of
! Emacs buffers.  To return to File Display Mode, type @kbd{f}.  You can
! also change the display mode by clicking @kbd{mouse-3} anywhere in the
! speedbar window (or @kbd{mouse-1} on the mode-line) and selecting
! @samp{Displays} in the pop-up menu.

  files, and lets you move the current message to another Rmail file by
  clicking on its @samp{<M>} box.
  
!   A speedbar belongs to one Emacs frame, and always operates on that
! frame.  If you use multiple frames, you can make a speedbar for some or
! all of the frames; type @kbd{M-x speedbar} in any given frame to make a
! speedbar for it.
