 Okay, continuing with our VIM tutorials here. Today we're gonna be looking at opening up multiple files within VIM. So let me go ahead, I've created just an example file here and index.html, so I'll go into that in VIM. And I guess I should also show you that in this directory there's a subdirectory, if I listed out there's some JavaScript files inside that subdirectory. So let's go into our VIM index file. So here we are, very basic little HTML file here. Now, let's say I wanted to open up one of those other files. So for example, inside the js folder, there was js main, which you can also see right here in our code. So what I can do is while I'm not in insert mode I can hit colon and I'm going to type in find js, whoops, for the folder, so I'm playing in the file name and it's in the sub folder js main.js. And when I hit enter, there we go. It has opened up that file. Now both those files are currently opened up in VIM. They're in what are called buffers, which we'll get back to in a moment. So let's open up another one of those files. I'll just again, colon, find, and I'll do js and another one was called test.js. And I can tab complete to complete that once I start typing out the name. I'd enter and here is the test js. But now how do I switch between all of them? Now you can do split windows, but we're not going over that in this tutorial. We're going to switch between them full screen mode here. What I'm going to do is I'm going to first list out all the files that I have open in this current session of VIM, all the files that are in the buffer. So I'm going to hit colon, LS, hit enter, and there you go. You can see it's listed that I have index.html open. I have js, the folder js main.js open and testjs.open. And also you might notice that there's a dot slash because I tab complete, dot slash just means current folder, so same as typing this. So again, that's colon LS to list all the current files you have open in this session of VIM, hit enter when you're done. How do you switch between them? There's different ways to do it, but basically now that I know what files are open, I can hit colon B space and I can now hit tab and I'll tab through the files that I have open and I can pick one, index, B tab, main js. And let me open up another one, it's an empty file, but I'm just going to go find js forward slash linux.js. So I can put something in here, function, main linux, whatever, just to have something in here, blah, blah, blah. So now again, I can colon LS to list all my files that I have open. Let's see that this one is open. And so now let me go ahead and go to our index file. So I'm going to hit colon B, I am tabbed auto complete that, I'll hit, oh, save that. B, what's I saying, index dot HTML, there we go. So now let me show you again, so now I have two of them open again, if I list, we have two of them that start js. So now I can hit colon B js and hit tab and well, I guess it tabs through all three of those, ignores that dot slash, I wasn't sure if it would or not. So notice it's ignoring like our index dot HTML because I typed js already. So that's one way you can shorten up obviously the auto complete with tab. So I can go to my main js or I can go to my Linux js or I can go to my test js. So again, we looked at three basic things today, opening a file with find. We looked at switching between the file or listing all the files with LS and switching to that buffer using colon B and then tabbing to complete that. There are other commands, but those are the basics. I do thank you for watching. I hope you're enjoying these Vim tutorials.
