-        * Make the majority of the code OO - previously large parts were
-          effectively a tangle of "global" methods.
-    - Add an API to assign flags to nodes. This allows VCS plugins like
-      https://github.com/Xuyuanp/nerdtree-git-plugin to exist. Thanks to
-      Xuyuanp for helping design/test/build said API.
-    - add 'scope' argument to the key map API see :help NERDTreeAddKeyMap()
-    - add magic [[dir]] and [[file]] flags to NERDTreeIgnore
-    - add support for custom path filters. See :help NERDTreeAddPathFilter()
-    - add path listener API. See :help NERDTreePathListenerAPI.
-    - expand the fs menu functionality to list file properties (PhilRunninger,
-      apbarrero, JESii)

-    - make dir arrow icons configurable (PickRelated)
-    - optimise node sorting performance when opening large dirs (vtsang)
-    - make the root note render prettier by truncating it at a path slash (gcmt)
-    - remove NERDChristmasTree option - its always christmas now
-    - add "cascade" open and closing for dirs containing only another single
-      dir. See :help NERDTreeCascadeOpenSingleChildDir (pendulm)

-
-4.1.0
-    features:
-    - NERDTreeFind to reveal the node for the current buffer in the tree,

-      Ritter and Rémi Prévost.

-      to Guillaume Duranceau for the patch. See :help NERDTree-A for details.

-      NERDTreeQuitOnOpen didnt play nicely, thanks to Curtis Harvey.
-    - fix a bug where the script ignored directories whose name ended in a dot,
-      thanks to Aggelos Orfanakos for the patch.
-    - fix a bug when using the x mapping on the tree root, thanks to Bryan
-      Venteicher for the patch.
-    - fix a bug where the cursor position/window size of the nerd tree buffer
-      wasnt being stored on closing the window, thanks to Richard Hart.
-    - fix a bug where NERDTreeMirror would mirror the wrong tree
-
-3.1.1
-    - fix a bug where a non-listed no-name buffer was getting created every

-    - some helptag fixes in the doc, thanks strull

-      <some dir>" (thanks to Alf Mikula for the patch).
-    - fix a bug where the CWD wasnt being changed for some operations even when
-      NERDTreeChDirMode==2 (thanks to Lucas S. Buchala)
-    - add -bar to all the nerd tree :commands so they can chain with other
-      :commands (thanks to tpope)
-    - fix bugs when ignorecase was set (thanks to nach)
-    - fix a bug with the relative path code (thanks to nach)
-    - fix a bug where doing a :cd would cause :NERDTreeToggle to fail (thanks nach)

-
-3.0.1
-    Bugfixes:
-    - fix bugs with :NERDTreeToggle and :NERDTreeMirror when 'hidden
-      was not set
-    - fix a bug where :NERDTree <path> would fail if <path> was relative and
-      didnt start with a ./ or ../  Thanks to James Kanze.
-    - make the q mapping work with secondary (:e <dir>  style) trees,
-      thanks to jamessan
-    - fix a bunch of small bugs with secondary trees
-
-    More insane refactoring.
-
-3.0.0

-      the window rather than a netrw browser. See :help 'NERDTreeHijackNetrw'
-    - allow sharing of trees across tabs, see :help :NERDTreeMirror
-    - remove "top" and "bottom" as valid settings for NERDTreeWinPos

+    - make the `q` mapping work with secondary (`:e <dir>`  style) trees, thanks to **jamessan**
+    - fix a bunch of small bugs with secondary trees
+- More insane refactoring.

-The NERD Tree
+The NERDTree [![Vint](https://github.com/preservim/nerdtree/workflows/Vint/badge.svg)](https://github.com/preservim/nerdtree/actions?workflow=Vint)
 =============
 
-Intro
------
+Introduction
+------------
 
-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 NERDTree is a file system explorer for the Vim editor. Using this plugin,
+users can visually browse complex directory hierarchies, quickly open files for
+reading or editing, and perform basic file system operations.
 
-The following features and functionality are provided by the NERD tree:
+This plugin can also be extended with custom mappings using a special API. The
+details of this API and of other NERDTree features are described in the
+included documentation.
 
-  * 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

 Installation
 ------------
 
-####[pathogen.vim](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen)
+Below are just some of the methods for installing NERDTree. Do not follow all of these instructions; just pick your favorite one. Other plugin managers exist, and NERDTree should install just fine with any of them.
 
-    cd ~/.vim/bundle
-    git clone https://github.com/scrooloose/nerdtree.git
+#### Vim 8+ packages
 
-Then reload vim, run `:Helptags`, and check out `:help NERD_tree.txt`.
+If you are using VIM version 8 or higher you can use its built-in package management; see `:help packages` for more information. Just run these commands in your terminal:
 
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/preservim/nerdtree.git ~/.vim/pack/vendor/start/nerdtree
+vim -u NONE -c "helptags ~/.vim/pack/vendor/start/nerdtree/doc" -c q
+```
 
-####[apt-vim](https://github.com/egalpin/apt-vim)
+Otherwise, these are some of the several 3rd-party plugin managers you can choose from. Be sure you read the instructions for your chosen plugin, as there typically are additional steps you nee d to take.
 
-    apt-vim install -y https://github.com/scrooloose/nerdtree.git
+#### [pathogen.vim](https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen)
 
+In the terminal,
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/preservim/nerdtree.git ~/.vim/bundle/nerdtree
+```
+In your vimrc,
+```vim
+call pathogen#infect()
+syntax on
+filetype plugin indent on
+```
 
+Then reload vim, run `:helptags ~/.vim/bundle/nerdtree/doc/` or `:Helptags`.

+This window is tab-specific, meaning it's used by all windows in the tab. This trick also prevents NERDTree from hiding when first selecting a file.

 Use these variables in your vimrc. Note that below are default arrow symbols
-
-    let g:NERDTreeDirArrows = 1
-    let g:NERDTreeDirArrowExpandable = '▸'
-    let g:NERDTreeDirArrowCollapsible = '▾'
+```vim
+let g:NERDTreeDirArrowExpandable = '▸'
+let g:NERDTreeDirArrowCollapsible = '▾'
+```
+You can remove the arrows altogether by setting these variables to empty strings, as shown below. This will remove not only the arrows, but a single space following them, shifting the whole tree two character positions to the left.
+```vim
+let g:NERDTreeDirArrowExpandable = ''
+let g:NERDTreeDirArrowCollapsible = ''
+```
