g:buftabline_number = 2 to show sequential numbers #11

I wanted to make key bindings to jump to an other buffer quickly like below.

nn <leader>1 :exe 'b'.buftabline#user_buffers()[0]<cr>
nn <leader>2 :exe 'b'.buftabline#user_buffers()[1]<cr>
nn <leader>3 :exe 'b'.buftabline#user_buffers()[2]<cr>

However, I found it's hard to know the sequential index of a buffer when there are a lot of ones, so I added some code to show sequential numbers.

Thanks for the patch. I plan to take it but maybe not verbatim. Something about it bugs me; unfortunately I can’t put my finger on it yet. (Also it’ll need docs.)

(I’m not sure I like the interface of setting g:buftabline_number to a special value, though it would be consistent with the other options… which I don’t like either but there too I mimicked the interface of Vim’s built-in stuff for consistency. Ugh?)

Basically I’ve got a bunch of obnoxious æsthetic quibbles with it even though there’s nothing objectively wrong with it; allow me to beg indulgence for my irrationalities.

Anyway. The feature will go in soon in whichever form. Again, thanks for the patch.

Sorry this almost fell through the cracks. But it’s now done.
