thanks for the tip! it works great.

cyboertoast, a quick fix would be to add the following right after tabs=true:

if [ "$1" = "-n" ]
then
tabs=false
fi

then, by default, “mvim foo” will open foo in a new tab, while “mvim -n foo” will open foo in a new window.

And the obvious addition to this is that starting multiple tabs from the command-line is to do mvim -p file1 file2 ..

It would be very useful to have a command-line option to specify whether the new file should be opened in an existing tab, or in a new window.
