allow splits to have 0 width and height

Question

Any way to do this? I'm attaching a pic so you can see what I mean. There is one column on the left that I can't get rid of when re-sizing the split.

I want the dashed bar to go all the way to the side so I can't see the tildes on the left.

thanks to romainl in the comments above I found the answer, just put:

set winminheight=0
set winminwidth=0

in your .vimrc
