Quite often I found in vim<\/a> that I would like the current buffer in a new tab, I use a lot the vertical and horizontal splits in vim, then I reach the limit (my screen limit) for the vertical\/horizontal splits, this means: if I add a new vertical split the code looks ugly even if it respects the 80 columns width, or if add a new horizontal split there would be just too few lines that is not worth to keep the buffer.<\/p>\n

Then I used open a new tab, type<\/p>\n

:e<\/strong><\/pre>\n
then type the path to the buffer I like to edit. Until now, now I open a new tab, then type<\/p>\n
:ls<\/strong><\/pre>\n
check then number of the buffer I want in this new tab and then type<\/p>\n
:bX<\/strong><\/pre>\n
being “X” the number of the buffer, ej “:b2<\/strong>“. Another trick is to type<\/p>\n
:bn<\/strong><\/pre>\n
for the next buffer or<\/p>\n
:bp<\/strong><\/pre>\n
for the previous.<\/p>\n
