+# MiniBufExpl
+
+This is a fork of [Bindu Wavell][]'s [MiniBufExpl][] plugin for [Vim][].
+
+[Federico Holgado][] started this fork and made lots of improvements. It is
+currently maintained by [Techlive Zheng][], the development has been moved to
+[@techlivezheng's repo][], only new version will be released to [@fholgado's
+repo][].

+
+## The Story
+
+>The reason why I took it upon myself to improve MiniBufExplorer is a matter of
+need. I am a User Interface designer who spends a lot of time writing front-
+end code. I recently found Vim and fell in love with it. During my search for
+the plugins that would help me the most, I came across MBE. I loved it
+initially, but quickly saw that it had some major flaws.
+
+>After using MBE for some time, I have been able to identify some areas that
+needed some dire attention from a usability standpoint. I am doing my best to
+fix those issues without adding "feature bloat" or other unnecessary things to
+MBE. I am always open to suggestions and discussion as to what we can do to
+improve this great plugin.
+
+>I would also like to thank [Bindu Wavell][], who is the plugin's original
+creator and [Oliver Uvman][], who like myself has been hacking at MBE to make
+needed improvements. My goal is to consolidate the code and act as the
+maintainer so that any further changes from contributors can be found in a
+single location.

+-- Federico Holgado
+
+>This is a very useful plugin, being able to see the buffer status in a
+tab-like fashion while you are working with mutiple buffers is very pleasant.
+Since @fholgado began to improve this plugin, lots of new features has been
+added, it's great. Meanwhile, there are still some annoying bugs that haven't
+been fixed for a long time, so I decide to step out and do something.

+## Improvements in Version 6.5.0
+
+### Bugfixes
+
+Squashed almost every known bugs due to the relase of version 6.5.0, for more
+details, please check out the 6.5.0 milestones.
+
+* https://github.com/fholgado/minibufexpl.vim/issues?milestone=1&page=1&state=closed
+* https://github.com/techlivezheng/vim-plugin-minibufexpl/issues?milestone=1&page=1&state=closed
+
+### Buffer With No Name
+
+Buffer without a name would be shown as `[1:--NO NAME--<timestamp>]` now.
+
+### User Interface Change
+
+Options, commands and key bindings have some changes, please see changelog for
+more details.
+
+### Cycle Buffer in MRU Fashion
+
+As a long expected feature, command ':MBEbf' or ':MBEbb' could be used to cycle
+the buffer forwards or backwards in the most recently used order.
+
+### Handle Buffers with Duplicate Name
+
+Mechanism for checking buffers with duplicate name has been totally refactored,
+it is now more efficient.
+
+Mechanism for generating unique name for these buffers has been refactored too,
+each buffer should be uniquely identified now.
+
+    ./test             -->  test
+    ./alpha/foo/test   -->  alpha/foo/test
+    ./alpha/bar/test   -->  alpha/bar/test
+    ./beta/new/test    -->  beta/-/test
+    ./omega/old/test   -->  omega/old/test
+    ./omega/test       -->  omega/test
+
+### MBE Window is Local to Tab Page
+
+Open or close MBE window in one tab page would not interfere another. Commands
+':MBEOpenAll', ':MBECloseAll' and ':MBEToggleAll' have been introduced to mani-
+pulate MBEs in all tab pags.
+
+### Preserve Window Entering History
+
+Previous versions of MBE will interfere the window entering history on updating,
+this behavior has caused many incompatibilities with other plugins. It should
+be fixed now, 'wincmd p' would work as usual.
+
+### Quit MBE if No More Normal Window Open
+
+MBE now will be closed if all the other open windows are plugin windows.
+
+### Delete/Wipeout/Unload Buffers Preserving the Window
+
+Commnad ':MBEbd', ':MBEbw' or ':MBEbun' could be used to delete/wipeout/unload
+buffers just as ':bd', ':bw' or ':bun', but the window that previously holding
+them will be preserved.
+
+## Improvements in Previous Versions
+
+### Current Buffer Highlighting
+
+Previously, MBE would only tell you if a buffer was currently visible in the
+editor like such:
+
+![][current_buffer_old]
+
+[current_buffer_old]: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/118650/mbe/screenshots/current_buffer/old.png
+
+Now, MBE shows you the buffer that is currently visible _and_ active in the
+editor. Here is an animated GIF that shows the current buffer highlighting in
+action:
+
+![][current_buffer_new]
+
+[current_buffer_new]: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/118650/mbe/screenshots/mbe1.gif
+
+### Duplicate Buffer Names
+
+If you are an MBE user, I am sure you are familiar with the following
+scenario:
+
+![][dup_buf_names_old]
+
+[dup_buf_names_old]: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/118650/mbe/screenshots/dupe_buf_names/old_fade.png
+
+The problem is that buffers with the same filename do not get differentiated,
+and it makes it very hard to find the buffer you are trying to edit. The
+simple solution is to show a parent directory that is different between all
+buffers like such:
+
+![][dup_buf_names_new]
+
+[dup_buf_names_new]: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/118650/mbe/screenshots/dupe_buf_names/new_fade.png
+
+Let me explain how it works. Let's observe 2 files that have the same
+filename.
+
+    /Users/fholgado/Sites/website1/css/style.css
+    /Users/fholgado/Sites/website2/css/style.css
+
+You'll notice both files have the same filename _and_ are in a folder called
+'css'. This happens all the time in web development projects.
+
+In order to differentiate the two files, MBE now crawls up the directory tree
+and finds the first parent directory that differs from both files, which in
+this case is 'website1' and 'website2'. MBE will now show you these 2 files as
+such:
+
+    [1:website1/style.css][2:website2/style.css]
+
+### Buffer States
+
+It is always important to be able to see at a glance what buffers are modified
+and need to be saved. MBE now shows you respective colors whether the buffer
+is modified or not modified.
+
+![][buffer_status]
+
+[buffer_status]: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/118650/mbe/screenshots/save_states/new.png
+
+**Most importantly**, MBE now updates the buffer states immediately after
+making changes, instead of the previous behavior that only updated buffer
+states when switching buffers.
+
+### Status Line Clutter
+
+Previously, the MBE buffer would use the same statusline that is currently
+configured for Vim. This adds a lot of visual clutter to MBE and does not add
+any functionality, since the status line is showing information for a buffer
+that does not contain any real content.
+
+![][stauts_line_clutter_old]
+
+[status_line_clutter_old]: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/118650/mbe/screenshots/status_line/old.png
+
+MBE now uses it's own custom Status Line format to reduce the unwanted
+information. This line is customizable and can even be empty.
+
+![][status_line_clutter_new]
+
+[status_line_clutter_new]: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/118650/mbe/screenshots/status_line/new.png
+
+### Window Auto Resizing
+
+Previously, the MBE buffer made the automatic window resizing using the ctrl +
+w + = command in Vim. Many of you have seen the following picture:
+
+![][window_auto_resizing_old]
+
+[window_auto_resizing_old]: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/118650/mbe/screenshots/window_resizing/old.png
+
+MBE now maintains it's buffer size both in horizontal and vertical mode when
+using window resizing commands. Now you can take a Vim tab that looks like
+this:
+
+![][window_auto_resizing_new1]
+
+[window_auto_resizing_new1]: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/118650/mbe/screenshots/window_resizing/new1.png
+
+And turn it into something like this without worrying about the MBE window
+becoming large as well:
+
+![][window_auto_resizing_new2]
+
+[window_auto_resizing_new2]: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/118650/mbe/screenshots/window_resizing/new2.png
+
+### Customizing Colors
+
+Here are all the color additions to customize MBE's new features. You can add
+the following to your Color file and customize the color accordingly:
+
+    " MiniBufExpl Colors
+    hi MBENormal               guifg=#808080 guibg=fg
+    hi MBEChanged              guifg=#CD5907 guibg=fg
