Using H and L for navigation #89

Wouldn't it make sense to have h working as - and l working as <enter>? At least as alternative keybindings? Exactly as ranger does it, basically.

Here's one method for this.

Add this function:

function! NetrwBuf()
  nmap <buffer> h -
  nmap <buffer> l <CR>
endfunction

Add this autocmd to an augroup to run for each netrw buffer

augroup FILETYPES
  autocmd FileType netrw call NetrwBuf()
augroup END

Now it behaves sort of like ranger
