Also try gF. If this doesn't work you still can install https://github.com/MarcWeber/vim-addon-goto-thing-at-cursor (as always I recommend vim-addon-manager) Use this to use 'gf' instead of the default mapping \gf let g:config = { 'goto-thing-handler-mapping-lhs' : 'gf' } The implementation always returns a list of possible file matches. Then if a file exists its opened. If none exists a list is shown so that you can select which file to edit. Eg does-not-exit.txt (then press \gf) will always run :e does-not-exist.txt Marc Weber -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
