[ooh, disclaimers.] to get your ido back, you can install ido-hacks, which will 1] make ido work in all sorts of places including refile 2] speed up ido by an enormous amount you might need to make sure you have the right version. there is also something like ido-everywhere, but idk if it has the speeding up feature or whether it does ido in the same places. alternatively, you can try helm [old, huge, different usage] or ivy [new, fast]. icicles is not as popular. i think both helm and ivy have c-spc ability or the equivalent. ivy is the most like ido of the popular non-ido. =3D=3D=3D i use ido with ido-hacks and ido-clever-match. the last one sorts choices beautifully. i get annoyed with different sort orders. i might switch to ivy in the future if it can provide the same sort order as ido-clever-match. it provides options, but not that one. it has been said that flx is a nice sorting option and that ivy can provide it, but it was too slow last time i tried it. idk if ivy speeds flx up. idk if it is close enough to ido-clever-match for me.
