Thanks, I really feel I'm closed but it's not quite working yet...
I put the following line into my .lvimrc file:
and tried the following command from within vim:
but it only gave me the following errors:
E121: Undefined variable: b:tselectfiles_dir
E15: Invalid expression: b:tselectfiles_dir
And the recursive file listing still didn't work :(

Thanks!
For some reason I forgot to grep for vim71 in ~/.vimrc,
and indeed there was a culprit -- an autocommand which
apparently could be commented out without consequences.

Hmm.. one scenario is that I have one tab open for project number one
and I am going back and forth between some 6-8 files/buffers, which is a
bit more than I could make visible on my display at the same time.
I guess I could spread them out over several tabs, but I tend to prefer
sticking to just one tab for each project and bringing back recently

I'm terribly sorry but I was mixing up my own plugins. :-)
tselectfiles, which is what we were talking about, doesn't support
retrieving the file list from git. But you can set the project's root
directory and then use the TSelectFilesInSubdirs command. I.e. put the
following line into that .lvimrc file:

Michael,
Excellent! Glad to hear it. I appreciate the positive feedback.
A lot of users could probably benefit from disabling a few rarely-used
colors. White and black, for instance, are probably not very useful
with the default colorscheme on a white background: the former because
it doesn't show up well, the latter because it's redundant with the

Given the lower priority of "\|" in parsing this is
1) any line containing "sample1"
2) or any line containing "sample2" twice
3) or (redundant to #1) any line containing "sample1"
It looks like you want to prioritize your pairings, something like
/^.*\%(\%(sample1.*sample2\)\| \%(sample2.*sample1\)\)

A couple items: first, you may want to read up on text
objects...there are "inner word" and "inner WORD" text objects
that may simplify your selection:
norm yiw
without needing to move around the end-point anchors of a visual
selection.
Additionally, for scripting purposes, you may be interested in

Thanks Brett, works like a charm. I turned off some colors and I think
I notice a slight decrease in start-up time. Great 2.0, by the way!

This does the trick in one line, and should work as far back as 7.2.000:

Thanks for all of the input. And all of it was useful.

I tried out inputlist last night and I preferred that to having to

ok,
I copied localvimrc.vim (I just downloaded the newest version - 2758 -
I hope it's ok too) to the .vim/plugin directory.
in my project root folder I created a .lvimrc file with your line:

micat...@gmail.com (Tom Link) — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 15:13:44 UT

Before invoking the :TSelectFiles command you should define a method
from where to get the list of files in your project. I personally use
localvimrc (vimscript #1613) for this. In the root directory of my
project, I have a file .lvimrc that included the following line:
let b:trag_git = expand('<sfile>:p:h') .'/.git'

Hello VimWorld,
first, a Happy New Year to this wonderful list.
...but I have a problem, maybe you can help.
I am trying to put together a regexp to find pieces of text within one line,
but I do not know their order.
So far,
/^.*sample1\|sample2.*sample2\ |sample1
is my best bet but I am still not there.
