Go to VIM window by name

There are some great Vim plugins for switching to a specific file or buffer by typing part of the name. Does anyone know of a plugin that allows you to quickly switch between open windows?

For example, if I have vsplit with a file named “a.txt” on one side and “b.txt” on the other, I would like to switch between them by typing the file name (or just “a 'or' b 'with incremental by searching.) This may not be very useful for two windows, but I often open up to 5 windows, so switching between them using regular navigation buttons can be a pain.

WinWalker seems to support this type of functionality, but is wrapped inside a much larger window navigation frame.

:bdoes it happily if you have one (in your vimrc). It supports the file name completion , for example. with - .:set switchbuf +=useopenCtrlD

I do not know how to switch to a window based on the file name, but I use the following shortcuts in mine .vimrcto move between windows.

noremap <S-W> <C-w><Up>
noremap <S-S> <C-w><Down>
noremap <S-A> <C-w><Left>
noremap <S-D> <C-w><Right>

It is just as simple, and I do not have more than four windows, so I have no more than 2 windows from any window. In addition, you do not need to enter a file name.

This uses the python api, so you can only use it in vim, but I'm sure someone who loves the vim script can easily convert it.

Use it as follows:

:WSeek win
:WSeek READ
:WSeek README
:WSeek a.
etc.
I'm not afraid. Sorry ~
" Call using:
" :source window-swap.vim or put in plugins dir

function! WSeek(target) 
  if !has('python')
    echo "Error: this plugin requires vim with +python"
    finish
  else
python << EOF

import vim

target = vim.eval("a:target")
found = False
for i in range(0, len(vim.windows)):
  vim.command(str(i+1) + "wincmd w")
  bits = vim.current.buffer.name.split("/")
  bits = bits[-1]
  if (bits.startswith(target)):
    found = True
    break

# Go back to the start on no match
if not found:
  vim.command("1wincmd w")

EOF
  endif
endfunction 

command! -nargs=1 WSeek :call WSeek(<q-args>)

@ Aaron Toma s answer switchbuf+=useopendid not work for me. In fact, the document does not mention that the configuration is supported by the command :b.

I used the following snippet:

let windowNr = bufwinnr(pattern)
if windowNr > 0
  execute windowNr 'wincmd w'
endif

See bufwinnr ()
