Go to parent directory with ../

    Hi,

    it would be really nice, if one could go to the upper directory by entering ../ when in Command-T mode.

    Best regards,

    Just to clarify what you mean by "go to" there, do you mean that if you began your search query with ../ then Command-T would search for files in the parent directory, without actually changing Vim's current working directory?

    Yes, I meant exactly that.

    I personally always use Command-T from within the project root of the whatever I'm working on, and Command-T itself is optimized to work in a very project-centric fashion, so I never need to open things from higher levels in the filesystem.

    So this isn't something that I personally would use, but if you or somebody else wants to have a go at coming up with a patch then feel free to go for it.

    Necro, but the lack of this is the one thing that keeps me from using Command-T.
