Startify basically provides two things:
1) If you start Vim without giving any filenames to it (or pipe stuff to it so
it reads from STDIN), startify will show a small but pretty start screen
that shows recently used files (using viminfo) and sessions by default.
it reads from STDIN), startify will show a pretty start screen that shows
recently used files (using viminfo/shada) and sessions by default.
Additionally, you can define bookmarks (thus entries for files) and
commands that always should be available on the start screen.
You can either navigate to a certain menu entry and hit enter or you just
key in whatever is written between the square brackets on that line. You
can even double-click anywhere on the line now.
You can either navigate to a certain menu entry and hit `<cr>` or just
enter the index (the index is whatever is written between the square
brackets on that line). You can even double-click anywhere on the line.

In addition, `e` creates an empty buffer, `i` creates an empty buffer and
jumps into insert mode, `q` quits either the buffer or, if there is no
other listed buffer left, Vim itself.
Moreover, you can open several files at one go. Navigate to an entry and
hit either 'b' (open in same window), 's' (open in split), 'v' (open in
vertical split) or 't' (open in tab). You can do that for multiple entries.
Moreover, you can open multiple buffers at once. Navigate to an entry and
hit either `b` (open in same window), `s` (open in split), `v` (open in
vertical split) or `t` (open in tab). You can do that for multiple entries.
You can also mix them. The order of the selections will be remembered.
Afterwards execute these actions via <cr>.
Afterwards execute these actions via `<cr>`.
The uppercase variants of b/s/v/t enable the batchmode which lets you
select any entries without navigating there first. Every following index
will be opened in the currently active mode. E.g. to open the buffers with
the indices 0, 2, and 4, use `B024` instead of `bjjbjjb`. To disable
batchmode, just use the same uppercase key again, or any of the lowercase
variants.
When the selection is finished, Startify will close automatically. You can
reopen the screen via :Startify.
And you can define your own custom ascii art header now!

2) The plugin eases the handling of loading and saving sessions by putting
sessions in a central directory.
