      Hi, this might already exist in some way;

      What I’m looking for is an keyboard-centric “go to an open tab”:
      Basically, a keyboard shortcut to open the Document Switcher, but instead of scrolling, allow searching in the list.

      I think a similar tool can be found in most mainstream IDEs right now, but I’m only using N++ :)

      (The actual algorithm should be fuzzy, probably similar to the one GitHub is using in its file search)

        I would suggest checking out the plugin called NavigateTo. It’s tagline is “navigate between files(tabs) quickly like a Ninja”, and who wouldn’t want to be like a Ninja? It is available via the Plugin Manager and it can also be found here.

          Thanks Scott - that’s exactly like what I was looking for.

          Unfortunately, it appears to crash when I open new docs :(
