  • xplr.nvim

    Discontinued XPLR - msgpack - lua

  • Created this plugin because I've switched from Ranger to xplr.nvim as my daily driver and wanted a cleaner interaction between the 2 programs. I like to sometimes use my file manager within neovim, and would prefer not to use shell to exchange data between them. Because xplr now uses LuaJit, pynvim/python isn't needed etc (like other msgpack plugins) It aims to support the "regular" features (opening files in nvim, switch cwd etc) like in rnvimr or nnn.vim

  • rnvimr

    Make Ranger running in a floating window to communicate with Neovim via RPC
