Is there any sublimetext2 like autopreview available to FuzzyFinder or any other VIM file opening plugin?


In SublimeText when using the file opener command, file names that are hovered over are auto previewed in the background. Is there any such file opener / add-on available to VIM that implements this?


Solution

  • The closest thing I can think of is NerdTree's preview functionality.

    In NerdTree:

    • Use j,k to move the cursor over a filename
    • Press go to preview it - this leaves the cursor in NerdTree
    • The next file you open will be opened in the same "preview" buffer

    This way, pressing jgo repeatedly gives you a quick way to preview each file.
