How to create folders in Vim (by preference using NERDTree)?

Question

I know how to create rename, delete and move files in NERDTree (just pressing m + a, d, or m). But I can't figure out how to create a folder.

Does anybody know how to do this on NERDTree (or just in vim's native "way")?

Answer 1

Well, you can always do:

:!mkdir <directory>

Does that help?

Answer 2

You use m + a and put a trailing / on the name of the child node you want to create.

E.g., m + a + foo creates the file foo. m + a + foo/ creates the directory foo.
