README
## Introduction
This is fairly simple plugin for [vim](https://neovim.io/) that provides a way of launching the current item in [NERDTree](https://github.com/scrooloose/nerdtree) with the default desktop application associated with it. This is done by pressing the key `e` on the item you want to open externally (it works with files and directories). Feel free to override the default key mapping to your preferable one via:
```vim
let g:nerdTreeOpenExternallyMap = "e"
```
This plugin supports Linux, MacOS and Windows.
## Installation
