  • The file is read into a buffer with the same name when we open a file in Vim;
  • switch between different buffers, :bnext :bprev or <C-^>;

  • split windows:

    Command Usage
    <C-w>s horizontal spliting
    <C-w>v vertical spliting
    :split {file} ~
    vsplit {file} ~
    <C-w>{w|h|j|k|l} move
    <C-w>c or :clo[se] close current
    <C-w>o or :on[ly] only preserve the current
