Just tried this sequence out and didn't see any problem. Please try the
latest version of netrw (v150t, available from my website:
http://www.drchip.org/astronaut/vim/index.html#NETRW)

I haven't seen this one, please let me know if you get a way to
reproduce it (please use v150t, though).

I move over ../ and press <cr> to go back up one level in the hierarchy. the cursor move on row 0. is it possibile to let it stay on the first line of the file listings? i.e. after the netrw header. If i disable the header with "let g:netrw_banner=0" there's one empty line on top of the buffer, so a movement is still needed. It also happens when i open a file with <cr>. if I open netrw again the cursor is no longer on the file i opened, but on the first line.
Netrw v150t's cursor was on the ".." after moving up a directory. Please
try v150t. I didn't see a blank line with g:netrw_banner= 0, either.
