I would like to have two windows opened while running a single GVim session. Just like tabs but placed in two separate windows. This kind of setup is handy for dual screen setup. I haven’t found anything relevant in the manual. Is it possible?
I don’t think this is possible I’m afraid. I’d suggest you send an email to the mailing list with a feature request. I can see that it would be useful, but you’d need to have a lot of extra keyboard commands equivalent to
Ctrl-W hto switch between different windows.It’s also very GUI specific and most of the functionality in Vim is designed to work in both the GUI and the TUI.
