Vim open file under cursor
- by ereOn
Hi,
Let's say I have the following file tree:
/
include/
library/
a.hpp
b.hpp
src/
a.cpp
b.cpp
And the following /src/a.cpp file:
#include "a.hpp"
#include "b.hpp"
I always open Vim at the root directory. So when I want to load a.hpp I do :
:tabnew include/library/a.hpp
or:
:tabnew **/a.hpp
I'd like to map <F4> to open the file under the cursor in a new tab, using a recursive search.
I tried the following mapping command:
:map <F4> :tabnew **/expand("<cfile>")<cr>
But obviously, this can't work, as it tries to open the file "/expand(" instead.
Any clue on how I could do that ?
Thanks.
