Vim: Open each buffer in a new tab

The way to go is:

:tab sball

From the help:

“sball: Rearrange the screen to open one window for each buffer in the buffer list… When the |:tab| modifier is used new windows are opened in a new tab, up to ‘tabpagemax’.”

Without the |:tab| modifier, it open each buffer in split view.

:sball

or to open at most 6 of them

:6sball

etc.
