This is an internal error and IIUC correctly should never happen. To make it easier to reproduce, what version of NERDtree are you using? What NERDtree settings are you using?

Can you reproduce it with ONLY the NERDtree plugin installed, and none of your usual .vimrc customizations or other plugins?

Is the same Vim version used inside and outside tmux? Can you post the :version output of each?

the GitHub version https://github.com/scrooloose/nerdtree

it's not so simple or me, but I'll try

yes it is, and it's the 7.3

BTW I think that we should start to reproduce the "no resize" problem outside the NERDtree windows.

thank you!

WHICH GitHub version? There are regular commits to GitHub going back over 4 years (I stopped hitting the "older" button at around August 2008, I have no idea how old the project is).

WHICH 7.3 version of Vim? As of right now, there have been a little fewer than 700 bugfixes and feature additions since the initial 7.3 release. Your version output should look something like:

VIM - Vi IMproved 7.3 (2010 Aug 15, compiled May 26 2011 05:23:29)
MS-Windows 32-bit GUI version with OLE support
Included patches: 1-206
Compiled by digit...@SPAMdancingpaper.com
Huge version with GUI. Features included (+) or not (-):

Is ALL of this information the same? Specifically, is the "included patches" line and the "XXX version with/without GUI" line the same?

Oops, re-reading your post, I see that you have another problem as well, that you cannot resize Vim windows with the mouse.

Did you try resizing a split window within Vim, or the terminal window itself?

What is the value of your 'mouse' option?

Actually, from :help 'mouse' and :help mouse-using, I'm not sure if mouse usage in Vim is supported on your system. I'm not familiar enough with using Vim in a terminal to be of much further help in that regard.
