# info-window.nvim
Open a small floating window containing a few details about the current buffer.
Useful when you just want to quickly see details about a file like ``.
Simple custom mapping:
```vim
nnoremap :InfoWindowToggle
```
## Install
Any package manager will do.
```vim
Plug 'mcchrish/info-window.nvim'
```
## Configuration
By default, the following information is displayed in the information window:
- Buffer name
- Buffer type
- Buffer format
- Number of lines
But you can use `infowindow#create` or `infowindow#toggle` then pass a custom
funcref/lambda that returns a list of lines.
```vim
" Extend the default content and add current git branch
" Lines can be plain string or a list where the first element is the label and
" the second element is the content. It will be then automatically formatted.
command! InfoWindowCustomToggle call infowindow#toggle({} , { default_lines -> extend(default_lines, [['branch', fugitive#head()]]) })
```
By default, the information window will disappear after 2.5 seconds. You can
change it using `g:infowindow_timeout`. If the timeout is `0`, then it will
not be closed automatically.
### Highlighting
You can change the highlighting of the floating window by setting
`InfoWindowFloat`.
Default:
```vim
highlight link InfoWindowFloat StatusLine
```
colorscheme yin
