" Use lf to select and open file(s) in vim (adapted from ranger).
"
" You need to either copy the content of this file to your ~/.vimrc or source
" this file directly:
"
"     let lfvim = "/path/to/lf.vim"
"     if filereadable(lfvim)
"         exec "source " . lfvim
"     endif
"
" You may also like to assign a key to this command:
"
"     nnoremap <leader>l :LF<cr>
"
