Option to make ranger a buffer (like nerdtree) instead of floating window? #97

I have a question. Is it possible for the ranger popup to be a buffer, mimicking the likes of nerdtree, instead of a floating window? So it would be a nerdtree, but fully integrated with my ranger config/keybindings (which makes this plugin really stand out).

Just to make it visually clear what I am talking about, take a look at this: ranger Pretend these two windows (of ranger and neovim) are one single window, but different buffers. That's pretty much what I mean.

The short answer is No. You can use the custom layout to make the floating window more like nerdtree, but I don't suggest this idea.
