I write a lot of shell scripts and I am constantly having to enter in filepaths. I am wondering if anyone knows of a way to get Vim to autocomplete filepaths while in insert mode, just like when you are in your favorite shell you tab to complete the path of the directory or file.

Tap “Enter” to execute this command on Vim. Now, the exact copy of the same file has been created in the home folder with a new filename.
For file name omni completion, you can use:
