Resize windows in vim
If you are using split views you can resize the window you're in by typing:
:res(ize) -N
:res(ize) +N
to de/increase your window's width.
For vertical views you can use
CRTL+W <
CRTL+W >
to achieve the same.
To fast minimize a window type
:res _

I use :tab sp to quickly maximize. When I close the tab, I'm back in my old preserved view.
