Question

is there any way to have Vim help like links in my .vimrc file?

Like to use it for, like for example, at the beginning of the file offer like a contents table to my whole .vimrc file? It’s not small, and I often find it useful to quick travel between two sections of my .vimrc file.

So is this possible? I’m talking about the links you have in all help files, like you press Ctrol+] and it will send you to the section of the file to which that link goes to. That kind of link.

Is it possible to have these in my .vimrc file? If so, how, the same way like with the help?

Thanks for all your help!

Answer 1

vim help uses a tag file:

$VIMRUNTIME/doc/tags

You can create a tag file for your .vimrc.

Then you need to set tags options to locate it:

:set tags+=/path/to/your/tags
