1. Intro                                                        *startify-intro*

Startify is a zero-conf plugin which shows recently used files, bookmarks and
sessions that were saved to a certain directory.


==============================================================================
2. Usage                                                        *startify-usage*

Startify basically provides two things:

1) If you start Vim without giving any filenames to it (or pipe stuff to it so
   it reads from STDIN), startify will show a small but pretty start screen
   which shows recently used files (using viminfo) and sessions by default.

   Additionally, you can define bookmarks, thus entries for files that always
   should be available in the start screen.

   You can either navigate to a certain menu entry and hit enter or you just
   key in whatever is written between the square brackets on that line. You
   can even double-click anywhere on the line now.

   Per default the startify buffer gets closed automatically, if an entry was
   selected.

   You can reopen the screen via :Startify.

   Moreover, 'e' creates an empty buffer, 'i' creates an empty buffers and
   jumps into insert mode, 'q' quits.

2) It eases handling of loading and saving sessions by only working with a
   certain directory. Two commands are used for convenience:

      :SLoad    load a session
      :SSave    save a session

The default settings are pretty sane, so it should work without any
configuration.

3. Options                                                    *startify-options*

Put these variables into your vimrc. The shown assignments are also the
default values.

============-

    let g:startify_empty_buffer_key = ''

This creates an additional, hidden mapping for the empty buffer.

Example: let g:startify_empty_buffer_key = 'o'


============-

    let g:startify_session_dir = '~/.vim/session'

The directory to save/load sessions to/from.

The default for Windows systems is '$HOME\vimfiles\session'.


============-

    let g:startify_show_sessions = 1

List saved sessions in g:startify_session_dir.


============-

    let g:startify_show_files = 1

List recently used files using viminfo.


============-

    let g:startify_show_files_number = 10

The amount of files to list.


============-

    let g:startify_bookmarks = []

A list of files to bookmark. Those files will always be shown at the bottom of
the start screen.

Example: let g:startify_bookmarks = [ '~/.vimrc' ]

============-

    let g:startify_skiplist = []

A list of Vim regular expressions to filter recently used files.

Example: let g:startify_skiplist = [
           \ 'COMMIT_EDITMSG',
           \ $VIMRUNTIME .'/doc',
           \ 'bundle/.*/doc'
           \ ]


============-

    let g:startify_skiplist_server = []

Do not create the startify buffer, if this is a Vim server instance with a
name contained in this list.

Example: let g:startify_skiplist_server = [ 'GVIM' ]


============-

    let g:startify_custom_indices = []

Use any list of strings as indices instead of increasing numbers. If there are
more startify entries than actual items in the custom list, the remaining
entries will be filled using the default numbering scheme starting from 0.

Example: let g:startify_custom_indices = ['a','s','d','f']

This would result in:

    [a]  /last/recently/used/file1
    [s]  /last/recently/used/file2
    [d]  /last/recently/used/file3
    [f]  /last/recently/used/file4
    [0]  /last/recently/used/file5
    [1]  /last/recently/used/file6
    etc.

NOTE: There is no sanitizing going on, so you should know what you're doing!

Best practices:

Use any list of strings as indices instead of increasing numbers. If there are
more startify entries than actual items in the custom list, the remaining
entries will be filled using the default numbering scheme starting from 0.

Thus you can create your own indexing scheme that fits your keyboard layout.
You don't want to leave the home row, do you?!

Example: let g:startify_custom_indices = ['a','s','d','f']

This would result in:

    [a]  /last/recently/used/file1
    [s]  /last/recently/used/file2
    [d]  /last/recently/used/file3
    [f]  /last/recently/used/file4
    [0]  /last/recently/used/file5
    [1]  /last/recently/used/file6
