How to open new buffer without replacing the current one? #518

Open homie-desktop opened 2 years ago

homie-desktop commented 2 years ago

Hi, when I try to open a single file it replaces the current buffer or file that I'm working with, I'm aware of the batch-mode. However, I use startify for opening a single file while I already have one opened. Is it possible to open a new file in a tab-split or vertical split without replacing the current buffer or file that I'm working with?

For now, what I do is press v to mark/tag the file I want to open as well as the current file that I'm currently working with so that the current file will not be replaced and the new file will open in a tab-split view.

Thanks!
