Add buftabline_path support #46

Closed tribou closed 6 years ago

tribou commented 6 years ago

I wanted an option to always show the parent directory names in the buffer labels, so I added a g:buftabline_path option. Not sure if you want this in the project, but I figured I'd send a PR just in case. 🙂

Hi, thank you for the patch.

I am, as you seem to have suspected, not going to take this one… I am trying to keep the number of rendering options low, because it’s hard not to make everyone pay for them and they make the code hard to follow.

I would like to make the rendering more easily customisable in a generic way, so that you would have a reasonable way of doing this without needing to patch the plugin. But I’ve been sitting on that thought for a couple years, since I’d rather have nothing than provide a problematic interface that I then have to support.
