Usage

Create an array containing your items, e.g., file names, paths, links or anything else.

var data = [
	{
		group: "files",
		items: "assets/main.css", "assets/test.js", "assets/main.min.css", "assets/test.min.js"
	}
];

Initialize Sensei Anywhere and define shortcuts. In this example shortcuts are command+k and ctrl+k. You can define as many shortcuts as you want.

var anywhere = $.anywhere(data, ['command+k', 'ctrl+k']);

Listen to "select" event to get the selected item.

anywhere.events.on("select", function (item) {
   alert("Cool, your selected item: " + item);
});
