Comment on Proj: Simple project tool for Vim

Comments

It would be nice if it did more introspection. I have a root projects directory (~/workspace) and it'd be nice if I could specify that root then try like :Proj ticketstumbler and just have it figure out from the directory name what I want. The projects file could be used to override defaults, so if I specify the same project in that file, it uses that config.

Also, why make me put quotes around the project name?

Thanks for the feedback. I like the idea of introspecting the directory names...I'll see if I can work that in there.

You have to put quotes because otherwise Vim complains about using undefined symbols (I don't plan on using the command interface in the long run; probably something more like what MiniBufExplorer does, or even FuzzyFileFinder's hack of the completion system). I agree that it's clumsy, but the command interface is limited, and can only accept paths with quotes omitted.
