Pass the filenames to vy as arguments on the command line:
vy file1 file2 file3 file4 ...
It would open four tabs.
It is possible to open files from command lines in different panes/tabs.
Consider you have three files, alpha, beta, gamma.
if you type in a terminal:
vy -p alpha beta -p gamma
The vy editor will open these three files in one tab. It will look like:
|Alpha|
----------------
| alpha | beta |
----------------
| gamma |
----------------
If you hve four files, alpha, beta, gamma, zeta then you type:
vy -p alpha beta -p gamma -t -p zeta
It will open alpha, beta, gamma in a tab and zeta in other tab:
|Alpha|zeta|
----------------
| alpha | beta |
----------------
| gamma |
----------------
The zeta tab would look like:
|Alpha|zeta|
----------------
| |
| zeta |
| |
----------------
The parameter -t stands for 'new tab', -p stands for 'panel', in this way you control how your files get opened.
