Yes, but if you just enter the ":new" command to open a new buffer,
your script will load.

b:... variables are local to the buffer. Creating a new buffer will
mean that the b:... variable you defined will not exist in the new
buffer and your script will potentially load again.

I'm a little worried that you're developing a plugin without basic
knowledge of variable scope in Vim.
I highly suggest reading through :help internal-variables before you
go any further in your plugin development.

Unless, of course, you're intentionally defining a buch of BUFFER-
LOCAL mappings, commands, etc. in which case you would want to use a
buffer-local variable to determine whether the script is loaded.
