How to have Tab cycle through the opened buffers?

[vinoff]

I open the buffers list with Tab (but it could be any other key). Now, I want to cycle through the buffers with Tab as well. So, buffers list is opened, I press tab and the next buffer is selected. If I press it again, It goes to the next buffer, etc.. If I am in the last buffer and I press tab, I want it to select the first buffer again.

How can I do this? As it is, it seems like tab selects multiple buffers at the same time?

:FzfLua buffers fzf_opts.--multi=false 
" if you have multi in your FZF_DEFAULT_OPTS you might need to add 
:FzfLua buffers fzf_opts.--multi=false fzf_opts.--no-multi=true

If you want this permanently add these flags under buffers.fzf_opts.

That seems to work to avoid multiselection. But how do I make it so Tab goes to the next entry (as in, works as the down arrow) and then, once it is at the last entry, if I click it again, it should go to the first option..?

Thank you @ibhagwan !

If you want to "cycle" through the buffers/tabs why do you invoke fzf at all, though: can't you just map <Tab> to :tabnext and cycle through, instead?

The point of fzf is to fuzzy find, if you don't need the fuzzy search why invoking it?

Thank you @ibhagwan , seriously! But what I am looking for is a way to have Tab behave as down-arrow in the fzf-lua buffers window. And once the last entry is selected, I want tab to go to the first entry again. Is this possible?

Use keymap.fzf to set tab to down.
