Is there a way I can get speedbar to give a complete top level tree and click through to lower levels?
treemacs does it (but doesn't have buffer, info, etc minor modes) ...
speedbar can produce a tree of headings for org-mode files although the default settings need a slight tweak:
;; default is (speedbar-prefix-group-tag-hierarchy speedbar-trim-words-tag-hierarchy)
(setq speedbar-tag-hierarchy-method '(speedbar-trim-words-tag-hierarchy))
For example, for this org-file:
* Places
** Queensland
*** Tamborine
foo bar
*** Gold Coast
**** Various
bar foo
**** Restaurants
foobar
*** Days out
...
The default settings give this:
~/Sync/
0:[-] bh.org *
1: {-} * (Places)
2: > * Places
2: > * Recipes
2: > * Health
2: > * Lists
2: > * Things
2: > * Fotki
2: > * Probus
2: > * Ironies
1: {-} **
2: {-} **
3: {+} ** A
3: {+} ** B
3: {+} ** C to ** G
3: {+} ** H to ** L
3: {+} ** M
3: {+} ** N to ** R
3: {+} ** S to ** Wheelbarrow
... a rather mangled list, and the top level headings are truncated to the first 8, but at least a tree. With the tweak above, I get this:
~/Sync/
0:[-] bh.org *
1: > * Places
1: > ** Queensland
1: > *** Tamborine
1: > *** Gold Coast
1: > **** Various
1: > **** Restaurants
1: > *** Days out
... at least it's in the original order and not truncated - but it's totally flat - the tree structure has gone.
