Hide cursor when enter on the tree

I'll try to create a PR on my free time

What does "disable cursor" mean and why would you want to do it?

I have the same question.

[lopi-py]

Sorry, I mean hide cursor

[lopi-py]

People can have mappings like h and j to collapse/expand directories, maybe the cursor is a bit annoying in that case, hidding it and enabling a cursorline might be a good adition I guess (could be optional the cursor hiding thing)

[cseickel]

I can see the purpose of this now. I've never done this so I'm not sure if I would personally like it or not, It might be something that can be solved by #155

But sometimes I need the cursor to copy-paste the name (or part-of the name) from the filetree. It's acceptable if this can be disabled by an option.

Then that's a bad idea. Normally one should not use h,j,k,l to do things other than default behaviours.

Anyway, this is just my own opinion.

This is definitely an optional thing, or possibly just a recipe in the Wiki.

That's definitely not an opinion that everyone shares. I remap h,j,k,l to window navigation commands myself. People should do whatever makes them happy! Neo-tree should (ideally) be flexible enough to accommodate any workflow and preferences.

See #155 (comment)

This would be fairly trivial to write with neo-tree events, and i don't think this should be a builtin config option. so closing
