I don't understand how anyone can use vanilla NERDTree because of exactly this problem. It just doesn't feel like a normal or sane editing experience when the tree keeps appearing and disappearing as you switch tabs! It's the primary reason I left Vim for an IDE at one point.
Fortunately, there's a remedy for this (which should really be default in the Janus distro). A simple plugin that makes sure NERDTree is always present and always in the same state across all tabs. https://github.com/jistr/vim-nerdtree-tabs https://github.com/jistr/vim-nerdtree-tabs
- tyrmored 14y agoI found NERDTree had no advantages for me over just plain :Vex. I'm sure it does have other features, but how whizbang does a file browser need to be, anyway? Besides, anything you want to do outside of choosing files to edit in your editor should be done in a shell: http://blog.sanctum.geek.nz/unix-as-ide-editing/ http://blog.sanctum.geek.nz/unix-as-ide-editing/
- mmahemoff 14y agoI didn't know about :Vex. At a quick glance, I'd still prefer NERDTree though, especially with nerdree-tabs as I like having a file tree and I like having one that's always present. I do shell out a lot, but I still think it's more convenient to perform operations against nodes in NERDTree. Saves having to navigate/down/a/really/long/hierarchy.
