  • bufexplorer

    BufExplorer Plugin for Vim

  • To open new buffers I usually use telescope. But to switch quickly between files I'm currently working on, I use Ctrl+6 (mapped to tab) or BufExplorer https://github.com/jlanzarotta/bufexplorer (mapped to Ctrl+tab). With BufExplorer you can also close opened buffers easily.
