NERDTree plugin side bar width
jailed
I'm using the nerdtree plugin. I would like to know if we can change the
width of the sidebar which shows the contents of the root directory (the
NerdTree), either make it more wider or less wider. If so please let me know
how this can be accomplished.
Thank you.

you should better not modify the script, because your changes will get
lost when you get an update.
The function s:initVariable() is used by NERDTree to initialize a global
variable if it does not already exist. So the better way to set a new
width is to put something like
let g:NERDTreeWinSize = 40
in your ~/.vimrc.

call s:initVariable("g:NERDTreeWinSize", 31)
I changed this according to the value I needed. Not sure if this is a good
way but worked for me.
Thank you.

I think this is a better way of doing. I could not figure it out earlier.
Thanks for letting me know.

Thats one way to do it, I tried with Ctrl-W < to reduce the width, but using
the shortcut every time, I'm too lazy for that.
