Buffers

• Vim can edit several files at once. Each edited file is called a "buffer" in Vim terminology.

• One can open a new file using the :e [filename] command.

• One can switch to a different buffer using :bn (buffer-next), :bp (buffer-previous) and other commands.

• :bd closes the file.

• :ball - switches to split-screen for all buffers.

• :buffers - displays the current list of buffers.
