Hi, since this is still really annoying me, I have to ask again, if there is *any* solution.
> You can use :bd! to force a real deletion of a directory > as opposed to just hiding it. Unfortunately, this does not work. No matter how often I type ":bd", ":bd!", ":bn", ":bw", ... nothing happens. (VIM 8.2, netrw v168) Example: - directory structure: ./dir/ ./dir/subfile ./file - vim * Result: - vim shows the "dir"-directory-listing, and there is no way to (a) delete the buffer or (b) switch to the next buffer with :bd/:bn. - :n switches to the next buffer, but does not cycle/wrap-around. - The *only* way to close the directory-listing, is: - :buffers - look for the buffer-numer - :bdel <num> - :bn In earlier vim-versions, :bdel was enough. So, is there *any* way to solve this, so that :bdel (or some other command) closes the directory listing and switches to the next buffer? (Or maybe a way to prevent "vim *" to open directory listings at all?) Thanks, Roland -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
