The new version of vi and vim supports tab function. Make sure your vi and vim version is 7.0 and above to do this. To open new tab, run
:tabnew or
:tabe in normal mode. T open a file in new tab, use
:tabnew filename or
:tabe filename. To move between tab, use
ctrl+pgup and
ctrl+pgdown. You can also use gt to and gT to move between tabs. To move to specific tab number use igt where i is the tab number
