Assuming you mean netrw (for Explore):

:help g:netrw_winsize
:help g:netrw-v
:help g:netrw_altv
:help g:netrw-o
:help g:netrw_alto
:help g:netrw_browse_split

I use manpageview for help:
(http://www.drchip.org/astronaut/vim/index.html#MANPAGEVIEW)

*OMan* "only" man page will become sole window.
Side effect: All windows' contents will be saved first!
(windo w) Use :q to terminate the manpage and restore the
window setup. Note that mksession is used for this
option, hence the +mksession configure-option is required.
*HMan* "hsplit" man page will appear in a
horizontally split window (default)
*VMan* "vsplit" man page will appear in a
vertically split window
*HEMan* "hsplit=" man page will appear in a horizontally &
evenly split window
*VEMan* "vsplit=" man page will appear in a vertically &
evenly split window
*RMan* "reuse" man page will re-use current window. Use
<ctrl-o> to return.
(for the reuse option, thanks go to Alan Schmitt)
*TMan* "tab" man page will be on a separate tab

C Campbell
