Only for windows.
As a vimer, I wish to use vim to locate and open file more easier and faster.
One day, I found a free software named Everything, it can locates files and folders by filename instantly for Windows.
This plugin provides a interface with Everything command-line tools(es.exe).
Invoke FindEverything, type the file name you wish to find, and then it will return results in a buffer window.
How fast it can be?
I type '*', which means find all files in all of my drives, and it return 160,000+ results in less than 5 seconds.
I believe that if you type more character, it will show the results instantly.
Usage:
1. Download Everything gui and command-line(es.exe) tools
from the website: http://www.voidtools.com/download.php
2. Start everything.exe and keep it running in background.
3. Put this plugin into your vim runtime/plugin directory.
4. Define g:fe_es_exe in your vimrc file.
Notice: it should pointer to the everything command-line interface(es.exe)
e.g. let g:fe_es_exe = 'd:\Everything\es.exe'
5. Open vim and run command :FE
Command(all capital)
:FE find files using everything.
:FER toggle the buffer to see the last search result.
Some map_keys:
<CR> Open file under the cursor by default association.
<C-CR> Open file under the cursor using current vim session.
<ESC> Quit the result buffer.
Some options:
1. Always open these file types in current vim session.
let g:fe_openfile_filter = ['txt', 'vim']
2. Define es.exe option.
let g:fe_es_option = '-s'
Known issues:
1. Don't set g:fe_es_exe to any path include whitespace.
2. es.exe support regular search, but seems that it can't work as well as its gui tools.
So, I suggest not using its -r option. You can use vim regular for further searching.
