Dear Maintainer,
The 'e' (edit) command of Vim has command-line completion. Items
offered include file names and directory names. Directory names
should not be included by default.
TIA,
David
I think this is the correct behavior and should stay default.
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?
