VSCodeVim Keybindings

To make - open an explorer from any file (like vim-vinegar) add the following binding to your vim.normalModeKeyBindings.

{
  "before": ["-"],
  "commands": ["vsnetrw.open"],
  "when": "editorLangId != vsnetrw"
}

This binding can't be provided as part of the extension because native VSCode's keybindings will accidentally trigger in undesirable instances (e.g. pressing r- in normal mode).

Installation

vsnetrw can be installed from the VSCode Marketplace.

You can also download a VSIX from releases and install it by running >Extensions: Install from VSIX.
