description
Buffy is a text menu (one item per line) consisting of names of currently edited files from all buffers.

Upon stepping on an item (file name) in the Buffy menu and pressing <Enter> key, the buffer with the chosen file will be placed into a current window. To delete a chosen buffer, press x or d.

Buffy may be invoked inside any window with the :Buffy command. That command may be bound to a key combination. By default, :Buffy is bound to <Leader>b.

If you prefer a different key combination, make sure to disable the default binding first:

    let g:buffy_default_key_binding = 0
    nnoremap <F8> :Buffy<CR>
