The problem i am facing is that i have mapped some keys and mouse events for seraching in vim while editing a file. But those mappings impact the functionality if the quickfix buffer.

I was wondering if it is possible to map keys depending on the buffer in which they are used.

EDIT - I am adding more info for this question Let us consider a scenario. I want to map <C-F4> to close a buffer/window. Now this behavior could depend on a number of things.

If i am editing a buffer it should just close that buffer without changing the layout of the windows. I am using buffkil plugin for this.

It does not depend on extension of file but on the type of buffer. I saw in vim documentation that there are unlisted and listed buffer. So if it is listed buffer it should close using bufkill commands.

If it is not a listed buffer it should use <c-w>c command to close buffer and changing the window layout.

I am new at writing vim functions/scripts, can someone help me getting started on this
