Typing :e to edit this file: /some/verylongdirectorynames/tohideaveryspecial/file I am very grateful to have autocompletion :) Thank you for the prompt reply. My use-case is Perl module development. It is common to have a module source subtree such as: lib/Foo.pm lib/Foo/Bar.pm lib/Foo/Baz.pm I find that when using ':e' in Vim, I end up opening lib/Foo by accident far too often. Is there a solution? David
