+GETTING BACK TO SOME FILE
+
+If you want to go back to a file that you edited recently, but not when
+exiting Vim, there is a slightly more complicated way.  You can see a list of
+files by typing the command: >
+
+	:oldfiles
+<	1: ~/.viminfo ~
+	2: ~/text/resume.txt ~
+	3: /tmp/draft ~
+
+Now you would like to edit the second file, which is in the list preceded by
+"2:".  You type: >
+
+	:e #<2
+
+Instead of ":e" you can use any command that has a file name argument, the
+"#<2" item works in the same place as "%" (current file name) and "#"
+(alternate file name).  So you can also split the window to edit the third
+file: >
+
+	:split #<3
+
+That #<123 thing is a bit complicated when you just want to edit a file.
+Fortunately there is a simpler way: >
+
+	:browse oldfiles
+<	1: ~/.viminfo ~
+	2: ~/text/resume.txt ~
+	3: /tmp/draft ~
+	-- More --
+
+You get the same list of files as with |:oldfiles|.  If you want to edit
+"resume.txt" first press "q" to stop the listing.  You will get a prompt:
+
+	Type number and <Enter> (empty cancels): ~
+
+Type "2" and press <Enter> to edit the second file.
