description
This plugin tries to duplicate the functionality of Marc Weber's
outline.vim (vimscript #1947) on the basis of its description and of
vim's own |:g|. Other than outline.vim, it relies on tlib
(vimscript #1863).

The TToC[!] command can be used to get a quick table of contents of the
buffer based on a given regular expression. The regexp can be defined on
the command line, in window (w:ttoc_rx), buffer-local (b:ttoc_rx)
variables or in global filetype-specific (g:ttoc_rx_{&filetype})
variables. The order actually is: [wbg]:ttoc_rx_{&filetype} >
[wbg]:ttoc_rx.

In the list view, you can select a line and either preview it (<c-p>),
jump there (<), close the list and jump there (<cr>).

Example:

  " Use the default settings for the current file-type
  :TToC
  " Show all words beginning at column 1
  :TToC ^\w
  " Show 'if' statements (but not the concluding 'then' statement)
  :TToC ^\s*if\>.\{-}\ze\s\+then
  " Show 'if' statements and 3 extra lines
  :3TToC! \<if\>

TToC only shows the matching string. TToC! works somewhat like |:g| in
showing the whole line, only that you can browse/filter the list and
select an item after reviewing the results.
 
install details
Edit the vba file and type: >

    :so %

See :help vimball for details. If you have difficulties, please make
sure, you have the current version of vimball (vimscript #1502)
installed.

This script requires tlib (vimscript #1863) to be installed.

Suggested maps (to be set in ~/.vimrc): >
    noremap  <Leader>cc       :TToC<cr>
    inoremap <Leader>cc       <c-o>:TToC<cr>
    noremap  <Leader>c<space> :TToC!
    inoremap <Leader>c<space> <c-o>:TToC!

The following gives you a |[I| or |]I| like experience but with a IMHO more
convenient UI:

    noremap  <Leader>c#       :TToC! <c-r><c-w><cr>
    inoremap <Leader>c#       <c-o>:TToC! <c-r><c-w><cr>
