description

The idea behind this plugin is to allow users to resize windows by using the Ctrl key (or something else the user may choose) + whatever they have assigned to  <down> <up> <left> & <right> which by default is obviously jkhl. Therefore, by default, the windows adjustment functions in directionalWindowResizer.vim are  set to <Ctrl+j> for down, <Ctrl+k> for up, <Ctrl+l> for right & <Ctrl +h> for left These mappings are at the very top of the file, adjust them to whatever suits your needs The behaviour of it is as follows: Whatever window is currently selected is the window that is going to be resized. Ctrl j - if bottom most window selected, window size is reduced by 1           - for all other windows the bottom border is pushed downwards by 1 Ctrl k - if top most window selected, window size is reduced by 1            - for all other windows the top border is pushed upwards by 1 Ctrl l - if right most window selected, window size is reduced by 1           - for all other windows the right border is pushed to the right by 1 Ctrl h - if left most window selected, window size is reduced by 1            - for all other windows the left border is pushed to the left by 1 If you only have 1 window or if you only have vertically split windows Ctrl j & Ctrl k will not work – ie if you only have vertical splits why would you want to reduce all their sizes?  Similarily if you only have 1 window or you only have horizontally split windows Ctrl l & Ctrl h won't work either.
