map <leader>o :BufExplorer<cr>
Open MRU.vim to see the recently open files (<leader>f
):
map <leader>f :MRU<CR>
Open ctrlp.vim plugin to quickly find a file or a buffer (<leader>j
or <ctrl>f
):
let g:ctrlp_map = '<c-f>'

map <c-space> ?
map <silent> <leader><cr> :noh<cr>
Disable highlights when you press <leader><cr>
:

map <C-h> <C-W>h
map <C-l> <C-W>l
Closing of the current buffer(s) (<leader>bd
and (<leader>ba
)):

map <leader>bd :Bclose<cr>
" Close all buffers
map <leader>ba :1,1000 bd!<cr>
Useful mappings for managing tabs:
map <leader>tn :tabnew<cr>
map <leader>to :tabonly<cr>
map <leader>tc :tabclose<cr>
map <leader>tm :tabmove
" Opens a new tab with the current buffer's path
" Super useful when editing files in the same directory
map <leader>te :tabedit <c-r>=expand("%:p:h")<cr>/

When you press <leader>r
you can search and replace the selected text:
vnoremap <silent> <leader>r :call VisualSelection('replace')<CR>
Surround the visual selection in parenthesis/brackets/etc.:
vnoremap $1 <esc>`>a)<esc>`<i(<esc>
vnoremap $2 <esc>`>a]<esc>`<i[<esc>
vnoremap $3 <esc>`>a}<esc>`<i{<esc>
vnoremap $$ <esc>`>a"<esc>`<i"<esc>
vnoremap $q <esc>`>a'<esc>`<i'<esc>
vnoremap $e <esc>`>a"<esc>`<i"<esc>

inoremap $e ""<esc>i
inoremap $t <><esc>i
