I'd like to map Leader+e in normal mode to showing the auto completions of files to edit.I tried nnoremap <leader>e :e<space><tab>, but it shows :e ^I, where the tab gets rendered as ^I rather than triggering the auto completions.Using nnoremap <leader>e :e<space> correctly prints :e but I obviously have to hit Tab manually in this case.How can trigger the auto completions to show up in a key binding?
How to trigger  auto completion in a key mapping?
key bindings;autocompletion
you can use :nnoremap <leader>e :call feedkeys(':e<space><tab>','t')<cr>the t means indicates to use the keys as typed (as opposed to coming from a mapping)
