flash-open

this extension for quick open file or folder by hot key

Why I need this?

this extension looks like ctrl+p,now let's talk about its shortcomings:

  1. it can not open unopened files quickly
  2. it can not keep the file's history all the time

flashOpen faster than it,flashOpen can open specify the file by shortcut keys,this usually helps in writing notes quickly or check the documentation.
sometimes some private folders will be stored in a single folder, such as dropbox,when you want to quickly view the file in the dropbox, and do not switch the current workspace,flashOpen will be helpful
