Finding files in vim

Some of my vim-challenged colleagues, when they try switching to vim, miss the Cmd-T function that lets them type parts of a filename and open the corresponding file.

After a quick search of the tips on vim.org, it turns out that someone has implemented exactly this function;

This has the drawback that it will find blah.rb.svn-base when you look for blah.rb. So, I've tweaked it a little to skip any svn files, and also not to look in the 'vendor' directory, so it doesn't find rails source files.
