In Vim7, you can use the gF command to edit the file name under the
cursor and if a number follows the file name, jump to that line number
in the file. You can use F to open the file in a new window
and jump to the line and gF to open the file in a new tab
and jump to the line.

No need for plugins or functions, it's already there:

:help gF

I posted a function to do this back in 2004.  It respects the 'path'
variable and overrides 'gf', '^Wf', '^W^F'.  Here's an archive link:

Hi,

I should probably add this to vim.org as a Plugin or something at some stage. 
Drop all this stuff in your .vimrc and then 'gf' will jump to the file + line
number, and 'gsf' will split the window then jump to the file + line number.

==

function! GotoFileWithLineNum()
" filename under the cursor
let file_name = expand('')
if !strlen(file_name)
echo 'NO FILE UNDER CURSOR'
return
endif

" look for a line number separated by a :
if search('\%#\f*:\zs[0-9]\+')
" change the 'iskeyword' option temporarily to pick up just numbers
let temp = &iskeyword
set iskeyword=48-57
let line_number = expand('')
exe 'set iskeyword=' . temp
endif

" edit the file
exe 'e '.file_name

" if there is a line number, go to it
if exists('line_number')
exe line_number
endif
endfunction

map gf :call GotoFileWithLineNum()
map gsf :sp:call GotoFileWithLineNum()

Goto file under cursor with line number

[Srinivas Rao. M]

Hello vimmers,
   I want to know if there is a way i can use 'gf' command to goto the
file under the cursor, which is having the 

I have a string under my cursor as :

somefile.c:1022

Where the field after ':' is the line number. Can i use the 'gf' command
to goto that line number of that file. Assume that somefile.c's folder
is added to "path" variable.


Thanks,
srini...
