<title>File browser panel</title>

  <p>Depending on how you use <app>gedit</app>, you may find it helpful to use
  the <app>File Browser pane</app> plugin. This plugin embeds a
  <app>file browser</app> in the side panel, giving you easy access to your
  frequently-used files.</p>
  
  <p>You can enable the side panel by selecting
  <guiseq><gui style="menu">gedit</gui><gui style="menuitem">Preferences</gui>
  <gui>Plugins</gui><gui>File Browser Panel</gui></guiseq>.</p>

  <section id="sidepane-open">
    <title>Opening files from the side panel</title>
    <p>
      To open files from the side panel, first open the
      side panel by selecting <guiseq><gui>View</gui>
      <gui>Side Panel</gui></guiseq> (or just press
      <key>F9</key>), and then choose <gui>File Browser</gui> from the dropdown
      at the top of the pane.
    </p>

    <p>
      This will activate the <em>File Browser</em> mode of the
      side panel. You can then use the navigation buttons at the top
      of the pane to locate and open your desired files.
    </p>
