Quick Navigation Interface provides a new way to navigate through the Administration Panels, combining the speed of keyboard shortcuts with the ease of a graphical user interface.
Just press <code>g</code> or ` — the backtick character, usually located above the tab key — to bring up the interface, and then start typing part of the name of any screen, post, page, etc. As you type, you’ll be shown a list of matching links. Use the <code>Up</code> and <code>Down</code> keys to move between them, and press <code>Enter</code> to open one.

This was inspired by Ubuntu’s Dash and <a href="http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/939" rel="nofollow ugc">HUD</a>, and is also similar to the Spotlight feature in OS X.

Quick Navigation Interface

Thanks for making such a great plugin. I've been thinking about making my own plugin that does something like this and only stumble upon this by chance. Works really well and super useful for getting to content quickly. Really appreciate the effort you've put into this. My only feedback would be to increase the search results to 5 or 6 maybe, but apart from that it's great!

Exactly what I needed!

Quickly access screens and content within wp-admin just by typing the first few letters of the name.
