Is it possible to open a file by its name? For example, in vim-mode, use :edit filename.tex?

I started this script where I have a bunch of key-bindings for the Vim-mode on Overleaf (I owe full credits to Harutyun Amirjanyan). The script includes defining key-bindings for Insert and Normal mode, as well defining short commands for the "command-line".

Do you see a possibility to implement a function of some sort, that can take a file name and open it with command-keybinding :edit filename.tex? This is the standard Vim functionality. Autocompleting the filename would be a huge plus :)

Sorry, I didn't get notified about your comment. Also, I wrote this script a while back and no longer maintain/update it, so I completely lost touch. All in all, I'm afraid I can't help you at the moment, but I have a feeling (based on my memory of the overleaf architecture from years ago) what you're requesting shouldn't be too hard to implement.

P.S. I might still take a shot at it in a couple weeks (no promises 😅) so let me know if you've already managed to implement this in your script.
