In a multi-window workflow, it's often desirable to make NERDTree to work in the current window instead of its side window. See issue preservim#244 for brief discussion. Currently it's possible to use `:e <dir>` to achieve this for `:NERDTree` command; but there are no workarounds for other functions like opening bookmark, toggling nerdtree, finding current file, etc. This commit adds an option to render NERDTree in current window instead of side window, and modifies all relevant commands to respect the option.

This is not a pull request I want to merge. We're trying not to add any more global options. So, I suggest that you add this functionality by extending the NERDTree with a plugin for your own private use. This PR adds a lot of code, which is no good for an already bloated project. I don't mean to be harsh, but this is not the direction in which I want the NERDTree to go. Feel free to submit PRs in the future. Bug-fixes are especially welcome at this time. |
