Delete directories?

EricEWeir opened this issue · comments

When I attempt to delete an iVim directory, at least in /.vim, I get “unable to delete directory.” Is there a way?

Or, if not delete a directory, how to disable a plugin?

netrw won't let you delete a directory unless it's completely empty, so you need to delete all its contents first.

If you're comfortable with the command line, it's likely quicker to do this by running an rm command via :term, which allows you to remove everything in one go. (But if you're not already comfortable with the command line, this might not be the best place to start learning it.)

My initial move away from Windows, before moving on to MacOS, was Linux. I got pretty comfortable with the terminal there. Didn't think of that option, but was able to delete the directory in the Files app.
