+1 for ECB. Especially alexott's work. I have been using ecb for over a year now and I can assure you it's totally awesome. Nothing beats it in emacs when it comes to exploring source code directory structure. you need it. With eshell integrated to switch automatically to your working directory you can quickly switch to the eshell buffer and run quick commands. Ability to add and remove sources from the sources buffer is totally awesome. you can choose between a number of layout options. For me working with a minimum of two buffers and one compilation buffer holding my eshell has been the most productive. Try it out. Sure you may have a few difficulties setting it up as you are bound to when dealing with first time unfamiliar things but right after that you learn a few things and are up in business. I'm really surprised so few people are using ecb. It's simply the best thing that has happened to me in emacs. Immediately emacs is up, for me it's M-x ecb-activate and when I need to temporarily hide it it's M-x ecb-hide or ecb-de-activate. With nice tips on each start up to remind you of various parts of ecb you may not know of. I can't shout!
