I want to open a file in Vim like in Eclipse using Ctrl + Shift + R, or via the Ctrl + N option of autofill. Invoke a keyboard shortcut, type the file name/pattern, and choose from all the matching files names.
I know opening it normally like:
:tabe <filepath>
:new <filepath>
:edit <filepath>
The problem here is that I have to specify the whole file path in these cases.

What I normally do is
e .
(e-space-dot) which gives me a browsable current directory - then I can/
- search for name fragments, just like finding a word in a text file. I find that generally good enough, simple and quick.
