I have been using this plugin more and more, and did a bit of customisation to suit my needs. Some of the features are borrowed from previous dired plugins for sublimetext/emacs.
It’s easier to show additional commands than to explain what I added, here is the new addition in my HELP text in normal mode:
O/shift+o = Open file using system association
sn = sort by name, repeat to reverse
sm = sort by modified time, repeat to reverse
ss = sort by size, repeat to reverse
x/q = close/quit
And this is with slightly changed views with modified dates and file size, for example:
D:\_Geothermal\Wairakei\wai41458\run_mp_16\

I kind of just hacked the code, so not everything is done as nice as it can be. @mkleehammer and others, is anyone interested? Or even better if anyone has done some further improvements that I can borrow?
