It came to my attention that the option summary has been neglected for
the past few commits. I added the new option in this feature branch and
updated the descriptions of two nearby options.
This section could use some focused editing.
I altered the behavior of the ":OpenBookmark" command to match that of
the "NERDTree-o" mapping. This is acceptable for the following reasons:
1. It was broken, so no one was using it.
2. The name matches its behavior.
If a bookmark is to be opened in an explorer window, we should have a
command with a matching name for that behavior (":ExploreBookmark", for
example). This can be added later if there is enough demand for the
feature. Otherwise, this is a perfectly valid change.
Sorting the list of user bookmarks requires care to ensure that Vim's
builtin sort function is called correctly. Previously, this function was
called incorrectly. This is why the sorting of bookmarks never worked.
The offending functions have been removed here and replaced with
"s:Bookmark.CompareBookmarksByName". To understand the necessity for
this change, read ":h sort()" for the requirements of the function
reference argument (esp., note that it must return -1, 0, or 1).
In addition to fixing this problem, the new comparison function will
inspect the "g:NERDTreeBookmarksSort" setting to determine whether
case-sensitivity is preferred in the sort. The documentation has been
modified to accurately reflect this adjustment. The change is also made
in such a way as not to break any existing configurations.
Fixes#361 ("My bookmarks aren't sorted").
This commit adds a `NERDTreeCreatePrefix` setting that can be used to
prefix the `:edit` command that is used to create the NERDTree tree
window. Defaults to "silent", meaning that out of the box the window
will be created with "silent edit".
Users may wish to configure this to produce other effects. For example,
`NERDTreeCreatePrefix` can be set to "silent keepalt keepjumps" in order
to make NERDTree create its window with "silent keepalt keepjumps edit".
This can be used to create an effect analogous to the `g:netrw_altfile`
setting in netrw. An example of why you might want to do this is
described here:

I'm not using vim-vinegar myself, but I am using something like it here:
https://github.com/wincent/wincent/blob/3efaa8fa50895/roles/dotfiles/files/.vim/plugin/mappings.vim#L60
And having `NERDTreeCreatePrefix` enables me to map "-" to show the
current file in context, and `^-6` to jump back to it.
Use +/~ for windows - which seems to not have the arrow chars in its
default font. TBH I don't really understand this.
Inprove the UI indent matching so that it should handle any combo of
open/close symbol lengths e.g. the fancy arrows are 3 bytes each,
whereas +/~ are 1 byte each.
Rename it to the more intention revealing NERDTreeRespectWildIgnore.
Use it directly in the `globpath()` call rather than surrounding if
statement. Its subjective, but I find this clearer.
Add an initializer for the option.
NERDTree can now optionally ignore the dot at the beginning of hidden
filenames for sorting to show them next to normal files if
`g:NERDTreeSortHiddenFirst` is set to 0. (By default it's set to 1 to
preserve the current behavior.) This is just like what GNU ls does when
`LC_COLLATE` environment variable is set to `en_US`.
Previously when you delete or moved a file via
md or mm commands the NERDTree was asking you about what to do
with the remaining buffer of the just deleted or moved file. I
always press 'y' in this cases so I've decided to add a new parameter,
NERDTreeAutoDeleteBuffer which you can set to 1 in order to skip
this confirmation.
