# ctrlp.vim
|
||
Full path fuzzy file, buffer and MRU file finder for Vim.
|
||
|
||
* Written in pure Vimscript for MacVim and Vim 7.0+.
|
||
* Has full support for Vim’s regexp as search pattern, and more.
|
||
* Can also find file in most recently used files.
|
||
|
||
![ctrlp][1]
|
||
|
||
## Basic Usage
|
||
* Press `<c-p>` or run `:CtrlP` to invoke CtrlP.
|
||
* Press `<c-f>` and `<c-b>` while CtrlP is open to switch between find file, find buffer, and find MRU file modes.
|
||
* Ever remember only a file’s name but not where it is? Press `<c-d>` while CtrlP is open to switch to filename only search.
|
||
* Use `*` `?` `^` `+` or `|` in the prompt to submit the string as a Vim’s regexp pattern.
|
||
* Or press `<c-r>` while CtrlP is open to switch to full regexp search mode.
|
||
* End the input string with a colon `:` followed with a number to jump to that line in the selected file.
|
||
e.g. `abc:45` to open the file matched the pattern and jump to line 45.
|
||
* Submit two dots `..` as the input string to go backward the directory tree by 1 level.
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Basic Options
|
||
* Change the mapping to invoke CtrlP:
|
||
|
||
```vim
|
||
let g:ctrlp_map = '<c-p>'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* When CtrlP is invoked, it automatically sets the working directory according to this variable:
|
||
|
||
```vim
|
||
let g:ctrlp_working_path_mode = 1
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
0 - don’t manage working directory.
|
||
1 - the parent directory of the current file.
|
||
2 - the nearest ancestor that contains one of these directories or files:
|
||
|
||
.git/
|
||
.hg/
|
||
.bzr/
|
||
_darcs/
|
||
root.dir
|
||
.vimprojects
|
||
|
||
* You can also use the set-working-directory functionality above outside of CtrlP
|
||
by adding the following line to your vimrc.
|
||
The parameter is the same (0, 1 or 2):
|
||
|
||
```vim
|
||
au BufEnter * cal ctrlp#SetWorkingPath(2)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Enable/Disable Most Recently Used files monitoring and its functionalities:
|
||
|
||
```vim
|
||
let g:ctrlp_mru_files = 1
|
||
```
