Pointer to treemacs #1

Just a thought. Sidecar looks very close to https://github.com/Alexander-Miller/treemacs so you might want to interface with Alexander and see if you can produce one package with the best of both. Treemacs works per frame and works on dumb terminals as well but it doesn't have icons when on a dumb terminal. Commands are pretty similar and it works well.

Hi @rswgnu,

I'm very well aware of treemacs, @Alexander-Miller was the first to review sidebar.el on reddit. His work on treemacs is really awesome.

I've started sidebar.el as a first project to learn emacs lisp and I see it more as a personal project to fulfill my own needs, while I'm totally open to share it and accept feature request / PR ! "Merging" the projects would probably be nice, but I prefer to keep working on my own. I hope you can understand.

And some competitions cannot be bad for the final users, isn't it ? :)
