Go Fuzzy

Open files in Vim directly (inside Vim terminal)

$ go install github.com/mattn/gof@latest

• Faster and startup
• Working on windows

• Glob files and edit the selected file with vim.

$ vim `gof`

• Read from stdin

$ find /tmp | gof

• gof -t or gof -tf [prefix] opens selected files in Vim using Terminal API.

• If you want to add -t option automatically whether you are inside Vim terminal or not, you can define alias like this

gof() {
  if [ "$VIM_TERMINAL" ]; then
    command gof -t "$@"
  else
    command gof "$@"
  fi
}

• If you are familiar with Vim script, you may want to send ["call", "[funcname]", "[file information]"] instead of ["drop", "[filename]"]. You can use gof -tf [funcname] to send call command

[file information] = {
  "filename": [relative filename path (string)],
  "fullpath": [absolute filename path (string)],
  "root_dir": [root directory (string)],
  "action_key": [action key of -a (string)]
}

• You can define utility Vim command :Gof. Quickly calls gof -t command and opens selected files in Vim buffer

if executable('gof')
  command! -nargs=* Gof term ++close gof -t
endif

• Please try vargs if you want to communicate easily with Vim terminal API from shell
