+
+  <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.
