description

This plugin makes search in tags more convenient. It holds query and search result in one buffer for faster jump to desired tag. Source code is also available on bitbucket: https://bitbucket.org/madevgeny/yate. Usage: Command :YATE toggles visibility of search buffer which will be closed after tag was selected. Command :YATEStationary toggles visibility of search buffer which will not be closed after tag is selected, instead cursor remains in YATE buffer to allow select another tag. Parameter g:YATE_window_height sets height of search buffer. Default = 15. Parameter g:YATE_strip_long_paths enables(1)/disables(0) cutting of long file paths. Default = 1. Parameter g:YATE_enable_real_time_search enables(1)/disables(0) as-you-type search. Default = 1. Parameter g:YATE_min_symbols_to_search sets search string length threshold after which as-you-type search will start. Default = 4. Parameter g:YATE_max_matches_to_show sets the maximum number of matches to display. If it's negative than all lines will be shown. Default = -1. Parameter g:YATE_history_size sets the maximum number of stored search queries in history. Default = 10. Parameter g:YATE_clear_search_string controls clearing of search string on next YATE buffer invocation. Default = 1. To get list of matching tags set cursor on string containing expression to search (in YATE buffer) then press <Tab> or <Enter>, never mind if you are in normal or insert mode. To open tag location set cursor on string with desired tag and press <Enter> or double click left mouse button on this string, never mind if you are in normal or insert mode. To open tag in new tab press <Ctrl-Enter>, in new horizontal splitted buffer <Shift-Enter>, in new vertical splitted buffer <Ctrl-Shift-Enter>. To get queries history press <Ctrl-H> in insert or normal mode in search string. Autocompletion using history also works by <Ctrl-X><Ctrl-U>.
