Usage

Launch file finder with one of the above commands

Inside a findr buffer, filter subdirectories/files by entering in the desired pattern

You can delimit multiple patterns you are searching for with a space.

The first matching item is selected by default, you can select a different item using <c-p> (or <up> or <c-k>) for the previous item, or <c-n> (or <down> or <c-j>) for the next item

Use <cr> to choose an item

Use <tab>, /, or <c-l> to change to the selected directory (inside a file finder buffer)

Use <c-h> or use <bs> when the cursor is right of the prompt to go to the parent directory (inside a file finder buffer)

Use <m-p> and <m-n> (or <s-up> and <s-down>) to go through your history of recent files/directories (inside a file finder buffer)
