fholgado/minibufexpl.vim — Issue #42: ack.vim splits minibufexpl window
Author: poorlilrichboy

State: open

To reproduce:
Do a search with ack.vim: `Ack! foo`
Go to a file in the list list and hit the `v` key
The file is opened in a tiny tiny split window next to minibufexpl

The cause:
The `v` key in ack.vim uses the following `exec "nnoremap v v"` at https://github.com/mileszs/ack.vim/blob/master/plugin/ack.vim#L56. It goes to the top window available, splits it, and opens the selected file in that window.

I realize that key isn't mapped in minibufexpl but ack.vim is a very popular plugin. Is there a way to prevent minibufexpl from being split?
