I want to open a file in Vim like in Eclipse using Ctrl + Shift + R, or via the Ctrl + N option of autofill. Invoke a keyboard shortcut, type the file name/pattern, and choose from all the matching files names.

I know opening it normally like:

:tabe <filepath> :new <filepath> :edit <filepath> 

The problem here is that I have to specify the whole file path in these cases.

    :FuzzyFinderFile will let you open files by typing partial names or patterns.
