+<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 panel</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 panel.
+ </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 panel to locate and open your desired files.
