I usually use :ls though there's also similarly :files :buffers with details at :help :files to list the buffers I currently have open, and then use "#" followed by the buffer-number to edit that particular buffer-number or split it in a new window: :e #38 :sp #38 as detailed at :help :_#n If I have two that I'm flipping back and forth between, I'll use control+^ (:help CTRL+^) to toggle between the current file and the alternate file. :help alternate-file Hopefully that gives you some reasonable built-in solutions. I'm sure there are all sorts of file-navigation plugins, but the stock functionality works fine for me. -tim -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
