Patch 7.2.031
Problem:    Information in the viminfo file about previously edited files is
            not available to the user.  There is no way to get a complete list
            of files edited in previous Vim sessions.
Solution:   Add v:oldfiles and fill it with the list of old file names when
            first reading the viminfo file.  Add the ":oldfiles" command,
            ":browse oldfiles" and the "#<123" special file name.  Increase
            the default value for 'viminfo' from '20 to '100.

+ 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.
+ 
+ More info at |:oldfiles|, |v:oldfiles| and |c_#<|.
