    files. To enable this plugin, select <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>
    Preferences</gui><gui>Plugins</gui><gui>Quick Open</gui></guiseq>.</p>

      Ctrl</key><key>Alt</key><key>O</key></keyseq>, or by selecting <guiseq>
      <gui>File</gui><gui>Quick Open</gui></guiseq>.</p>
      <p>The <gui>Quick Open</gui> file dialog will appear.</p></item>
      <item><p>Use your mouse to select the file or files that you want to open.
      </p>
      <p>To select several individual files, hold down your <key>Ctrl</key> key
      while you click on the files that you want to open.</p>
      <p>To select a group of files, click on the first file that you want to 
      open, hold down the <key>Shift</key> key, and then click on the last file 
      in the list that you want to open.</p></item>
      <item><p>Click <gui>Open</gui>.</p></item>
    </steps>
