RE: netrw v125: Texplore does not start browsing from current file's directory

':help :Texplore' says that it does a ':tabnew' first, which would
explain why it is showing the 'pwd' directory.

I do not know if there is a built-in way to do this, but if not,
you could make your own command with this:

:command Tcurrent execute 'Texplore '.expand('%:p:h')

Then use :Tcurrent to explore the directory of the current file
in a new tab. This is just a quick idea, and there are probably
corner cases which do not behave well.
