Not possible to jump to existing open tab using :Lines

[no-more-secrets]

Hi,

After much searching and trying various solutions posted in forums, I have been unable to get the :Lines command to allow me to jump to an existing tab when the chosen file is already open in another tab. Is there any way to do this? I tried setting g:fzf_buffers_jump = 1 but that does not seem to help. I also tried various things with g:fzf_action but couldn't make that work given the implementation of s:line_handler. Can someone suggest a way? Here is the current implementation of the s:line_handler:

function! s:line_handler(lines)
  if len(a:lines) < 2
    return
  endif
  normal! m'
  let cmd = s:action_for(a:lines[0])
  if !empty(cmd) && stridx('edit', cmd) < 0
    execute 'silent' cmd
  endif

  let keys = split(a:lines[1], '\t')
  execute 'buffer' keys[0]
  execute keys[2]
  normal! ^zvzz
endfunction

but as can be seen, the execute 'silent' cmd, while it will execute a command that I put into g:fzf_action, does not allow passing the name of the file selected, so I can't write a custom function to e.g. find the tab and select it (by calling tab drop) since a filename is needed. Can someone help?

With let g:fzf_action['enter'] = 'tab drop'I have similar problem with, for example, :Buffers which use s:bufopen with the same execute 'silent' cmd. I get Vim(drop):E471: Argument required: silent tab drop.

Results from fzf#vim#files('.') are correctly opened because of no sink function similar to mentioned above.

It would be awesome if someone could fix it for :Buffers too.

Problem can reproduce with minimal config:

let g:fzf_action = {
    \ 'ctrl-t': 'tab drop',
    \ 'ctrl-x': 'split',
    \ 'ctrl-v': 'vsplit' }

Then try ctrl-t on any buffer after executing :Buffers causes error:

Error detected while processing function fzf#vim#buffers[3]..<SNR>143_fzf[18]..fzf#run[63]..<SNR>21_callback:
Vim(drop):E471: Argument required: silent tab drop

Tested with master 8f1e73b

Although the pair

let g:fzf_action.enter = 'tab'
let g:fzf_buffers_jump = 1

seems to be a workaround, non-working g:fzf_action.enter = 'tab drop', should be fixed like in #1192 or in another way.
