Great, this works.
Another question, ":tabe %" can open the same file, is there an easy way to
open another file which locates in the same or very similar directory of the
current file?
For example, I am viewing f2 now, and I want to open f3 which is of same
directory of f2 and to open f4 whose path is <f2 location>/../i/f4.
Any trick to do this?

You can substitute the full path of the current file with the character
"%" in an ex-command. So, assuming you're already viewing f2, you can
do the following:
:tabe %
And it will re-open the current file in another tab.
