howdy.vim

A tiny MRU start screen for Vim.

Usage

• Install Howdy using your favorite plugin manager or copy each file to its corresponding directory under ~/.vim/.

• Type <CR> to open a file.

• Type q to exit to a markdown scratch buffer.

• If there are files you want Howdy to ignore, add the patterns to be matched to g:howdy_ignore:

  let g:howdy_ignore = [ 'vim\/runtime\/doc\/.*.txt' ]
  

  (That's the default, causing Howdy to ignore Vim's help files.)

• Use :Howdy to open Howdy anytime.

That's it!
