I added lustyExplorer to ~/.vim/plugin. Then I ran MacVim and tried to run it with ":LustyFileSystemExplorer". Error

"Unknown Function: lustyExplorer#LustyFileSystemExplorerStart"

In the documentation it says:

Usage:
"                 <Leader>lf  - Opens the filesystem explorer.
"                 <Leader>lr  - Opens the filesystem explorer from the
"                               directory of the current file.
"                 <Leader>lb  - Opens the buffer explorer.
"                 <Leader>lg  - Opens the buffer grep, for searching through
"                               all loaded buffers
"
"               You can also use the commands:
"
"                 ":LustyFilesystemExplorer [optional-path]"
"                 ":LustyFilesystemExplorerFromHere"
"                 ":LustyBufferExplorer"
"                 ":LustyBufferGrep"

I also tried :lf and got Error:

can't open errorfile errors.err

Am I executing it correctly? What does the prefix <Leader> mean?

  • From the docs: "This plugin requires Vim be compiled with Ruby interpretation." So does MacVim have Ruby support? To check run: mvim --version | grep -i ruby

  • Yes, I already checked this.

  • Dead set on using this? I'm a big fan of NERDTree for a file explorer and I recommend using Vundle as your plugin install in *vim.

  • So far I've tried peepopen and lustyexplorer and both of them are broken :). I'll try NerdTree next I suppose.

    I really recommend using Vundle to manage the installs of your plugins.

If you have dowloaded the file from github seems to be incorrect. Use the download link in the plugin page lusty-explorer.vim that works as expected
