I personnaly use :Explore when I just want to browse, and FuzzyFinder (http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1984 http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1984) when I know what I want to open; it allow fuzzy (or not) completion on filenames, buffers, tags, and a whole lot of other things.
- pkrumins 17y agoThanks. I have yet to explore FuzzyFinder!
- latortuga 17y agoI use http://github.com/jamis/fuzzyfinder_textmate http://github.com/jamis/fuzzyfinder_textmate which is an extension to the existing fuzzy finder vim plugin which tries to simulate textmate's fuzzy finder file opener (cmd T if you're on a mac). It's really quite awesome and I use it every single day, all the time, to open every file I work with. The downside is that you have to use an old version of the regular fuzzy finder gem because the guy who maintains that gem changed the api a bunch of times - to save you some trouble I believe the correct version of normal fuzzy finder (http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1984 http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1984) you have to use is 2.16.
- hyyypr 17y agoSounds good I'll give it a shot. But I never used textmate (mac hardware user, linux lover :), how is it that popular ? And how is it different from the regular fuzzy finder ?
- hyyypr 17y agoFrom the github page: "Once in TextMate mode, completion is done against the entire directory tree at once, using partial matches." Can't you do the same thing with fuzzy finder using /filenamepart ? And doing this in the regular fuzzy finder in a relatively big directory tree, does take some time unfortunately :/
