-The NERD Tree
+The NERDTree
=============
-Intro
------
-
-The NERD tree allows you to explore your filesystem and to open files and
-directories. It presents the filesystem to you in the form of a tree which you
-manipulate with the keyboard and/or mouse. It also allows you to perform
-simple filesystem operations.
-
-The following features and functionality are provided by the NERD tree:
-
- * Files and directories are displayed in a hierarchical tree structure
- * Different highlighting is provided for the following types of nodes:
- * files
- * directories
- * sym-links
- * windows .lnk files
- * read-only files
- * executable files
- * Many (customisable) mappings are provided to manipulate the tree:
- * Mappings to open/close/explore directory nodes
- * Mappings to open files in new/existing windows/tabs
- * Mappings to change the current root of the tree
- * Mappings to navigate around the tree
- * ...
- * Directories and files can be bookmarked.
- * Most NERD tree navigation can also be done with the mouse
- * Filtering of tree content (can be toggled at runtime)
- * custom file filters to prevent e.g. vim backup files being displayed
- * optional displaying of hidden files (. files)
- * files can be "turned off" so that only directories are displayed
- * The position and size of the NERD tree window can be customised
- * The order in which the nodes in the tree are listed can be customised.
- * A model of your filesystem is created/maintained as you explore it. This
- has several advantages:
- * All filesystem information is cached and is only re-read on demand
- * If you revisit a part of the tree that you left earlier in your
- session, the directory nodes will be opened/closed as you left them
- * The script remembers the cursor position and window position in the NERD
- tree so you can toggle it off (or just close the tree window) and then
- reopen it (with NERDTreeToggle) the NERD tree window will appear exactly
- as you left it
- * You can have a separate NERD tree for each tab, share trees across tabs,
- or a mix of both.
- * By default the script overrides the default file browser (netrw), so if
- you :edit a directory a (slightly modified) NERD tree will appear in the
- current window
- * A programmable menu system is provided (simulates right clicking on a node)
- * one default menu plugin is provided to perform basic filesystem
- operations (create/delete/move/copy files/directories)
- * There's an API for adding your own keymappings
+Introduction
+------------
+
+The NERDTree is a file system explorer for the Vim editor. Using this plugin,
+you can visually browse complex directory hierarchies, quickly open files for
+reading or editing, and perform basic file system operations. This plugin can
+also be extended with custom mappings using a special API. The details of this
+API and other NERDTree features is described in the included documentation.
