Edit a file from the arg list by search pattern
I would like to be able to edit Foo.cs by partial name without using :prev or :first et cetera.
Foo.cs Bar.cs [Baz.c]s Qux.cs
I have tried :arge F* and Vim says: No match. I have also tried :arge *F*. How can I navigate directly to Foo using part of its name?

If the buffer is already opened, you can just type parts of the name using :b.
:ls
1 #h "Foo.cs" Line 1
2 h "Bar.cs" Line 1
3 %h "Baz.c" Line 1
4 a "Qux.cs" Line 1
:b F
:ls
1 %a "Foo.cs" Line 1
2 h "Bar.cs" Line 1
3 #h "Baz.c" Line 1
4 h + "Qux.cs" Line 1
