tomtom / autolinker_vim

Automatic hyperlinks for any filetype

Features:

• Call :Autolinkbuffer to enable autolinker for the current buffer or check the definitions of g:autolinker_filetypes and g:autolinker_patterns.
• Jump to files in the current directory
• Jump to files in 'path'
• Jump to tags
• Jump to file URLs
• Jump to line numbers (syntax: filename#123 where '123' is the line number)
• Jump to the first occurrence of a string (syntax: filename#q=STRING)
• Invoke URLs
• Highlight potential hyperlinks (doesn't work with all filetypes)
• Use a fallback command (e.g. create inexistent files)
• Special support for markdown (incl. link maps), viki files
• file URLs (an encoded URL starting with "file://") can be used to circumvent encoding issues etc.

The default map is gz in normal and visual mode (see g:autolinker#nmap and g:autolinker#xmap). In insert mode, it is <c-cr> if the key is yet unmapped (see g:autolinker#imap).

Differences to gf:

• Customizable & extensible
• Supports several methods
• Highlight some potential hyperlinks if possible
• When there are multiple potential matches, users can select the right file from a list
