This plugin automatically stores the \nfile names as you open/edit them in Vim. \n\nThis plugin works with both Vim and Neovim and will work on all the platforms\nwhere Vim/Neovim are supported.  This plugin will work in both console and GUI\nVim. This version of the MRU plugin needs Vim 7.0 and above.\n\n## Installation\n\nYou can install this plugin by downloading the .zip or the .tar.gz file for the latest MRU release from the following page:\n\nhttps://github.com/yegappan/mru/releases/latest\n\nFor Vim 8.0 and above, you can expand the .zip file in the following directory (on Unix/Linux/MacOS systems):\n\n    $ mkdir -p $HOME/.vim/pack/downloads/start/mru\n    $ cd $HOME/.vim/pack/downloads/start/mru\n    $ unzip \u003cdownloaded_mru_file.zip\u003e\n\nFor Vim 7.4 and before, you can use the following steps (on Unix/Linux/MacOS systems):\n\n    $ mkdir $HOME/.vim\n    $ cd $HOME/.vim\n    $ unzip \u003cdownloaded_mru_file.zip\u003e\n\nYou can also install this plugin directly from github using the following steps (for Vim 8.0 and above):\n\n    $ mkdir -p $HOME/.vim/pack/downloads/start/mru\n    $ cd $HOME/.vim/pack/downloads/start\n    $ git clone https://github.com/yegappan/mru\n\nFor NeoVim:\n\n    $ mkdir -p $HOME/.config/nvim/pack/downloads/start/mru\n    $ cd $HOME/.config/nvim/pack/downloads/start\n    $ git clone https://github.com/yegappan/mru\n\nor you can use any one of the Vim plugin managers ([vim-plug](https://github.com/junegunn/vim-plug), [dein.vim](https://github.com/Shougo/dein.vim), [pathogen](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen), [minpac](https://github.com/k-takata/minpac), [vam](https://github.com/MarcWeber/vim-addon-manager), [volt](https://github.com/vim-volt/volt), [Vundle](https://github.com/VundleVim/Vundle.vim), etc.) to install and manage this plugin.\n\n## Usage\nAfter the plugin is installed, it will automatically start to record the names of all the recently used files in the `$HOME/.vim_mru_files` text file.\n\nTo open a file from the recently used file list, enter the following command:\n\n    :MRU\n\nThis will open a temporary window with the list of file names in the MRU list where you can press `\u003cEnter\u003e` to open a file.\n\nYou can fuzzy search a text in the list of file names, by passing a search text to the `:MRU` command:\n\n    :MRU \u003csearch_text\u003e\n\nThis will open the MRU window with only the file names fuzzy matching the supplied search string.\n\nThe user manual is available at:\nhttps://github.com/yegappan/mru/wiki/User-Manual\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fyegappan%2Fmru","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fyegappan%2Fmru","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fyegappan%2Fmru/lists"}
