Using the FuzzyFinder plugin in Vim, how does one regenerate the file list displayed?

Try this:

 :ruby finder.rescan!

You can map that to something if you need to do it often.

You can map to F12 key with: :map <special> <F12> :ruby finder.rescan!<ENTER> – Mclendon 2/10, 2009 at 20:49

When I try this, I get "NameError: undefined local variable or method `finder' for main:Object". – Batory 18/1, 2011 at 19:9

Fuzzy Finder has a command called :FufRenewCache

Earlier versions of Fuzzy Finder had something similar, but I can't remember the command now.

Just try typing

:Fuf or :FuzzyFinder

And see what possible commands are shown in Vim.

You can also disable caching by putting following settings in your .vimrc:

let g:fuf_help_cache_dir = ''
let g:fuf_tag_cache_dir = ''
let g:fuf_taggedfile_cache_dir = ''
