Creates a tree based file explorer within vim.
This is like the directory explorer plugin that ships with vim, but instead of presenting just one directory at a time, this plugin present portions of the filesystem hierarch in a tree view. This type of view should be familiar from modern graphical file managers. This explorer persents navigation, exploration, and opening of files only - unlike the standard directory explorer that allow you to delete and rename files. This a handy tool for becoming familiar with source trees.
Feature summary:
- directories are foldable (fold markers are highlighted invisible)
- directories and links are syntax highlighted
- open a file in a new window
- mappings for naviagation (keyboard and mouse) - goto parent, change dir, go up, cd to home, refesh, etc
- lazy loading of directory structure - one directory at a time. Recursive expansion also available.
Caveats:
May not work well for obscure systems - unix and windows work well. Please send bugs or patches.
This is a reimplementation of the treeexplorerer (see http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=183 ) that doesn't require perl or the tree command - it's pure vim.

Changed recursive expand from E to X mapping. Added E mapping to open regular file explorer on cursor dir. Added :CD command to switch to direcotry (useful maybe to CD: D: on windows?) - still some escaping bugs on that one. Fixed bug for dirs/files that start with tree parts. Better escaping of file/dir names. Other minor fixes and clean ups. |

Added command to refresh cursor dir. Added command to recursively expand subdirs of cursor dir (caution: this could take a long time for big subdir trees). Changed the hidded files toggle to refresh current dir after. Fixes for windows. Other minor fixes. Using CVS version numbers now, sorry for the jump. |
