I use gvim -o to open say 20 files. But, say, only 10 of them can be

please let me know how to do it?


I don't know, but if you make sure that 'winminheight' is set to 0 (the default is 1) you'll be able to open approximately half again as many windows. Of course if there are really many of them, most of the screen real estate will be taken up by the status lines, so setting 'winheight' to a large number, and/or using ":wincmd _" (without the quotes), at the VimEnter event (not earlier, or your -o switch won't work), will help you see the contents of your current window. (At the moment I have 25 windows open with only horizontal splits in a single gvim tab, and the current one still has 21 lines visible. Not really enormous but still workable.)


Best regards,
Tony.
