RE: [Viplugin-user] Ctrl-F and Ctrl-B from Vim

Hi Kyle,

  C-P and C-N to "completion" on words.  You type out the first few letters of 
a word (say, a variable identifier) and then C-P will search up the document 
until it finds it, and multiple C-P matches the next, next, ... etc.  C-N 
goes down the document.  This works really well, because you might have a 
function defined with parameter names, and you want to complete those 
identifiers.  Or some long constant name... you get the idea.  Anyone who 
uses a unix shell knows how great "tab completion" is.

  C-P and C-N don't stop if they can't find the word in the buffer.   They'll 
start searching the other buffers you have open.  It is a truly glorious time 
saver, and it encourages me to use more verbose variable names.

-Ben

Eugeni, If you have luck with mapping C-F and C-B please post back to the list
as I wish to do this as well.

Ben,  What do C-P and C-N do?  :)
