Try looking in the help: ':h -o' should get you there.

It's not a vim thing, that's why you can't find it in there. It's a
bash thing. In your .bashrc:
alias vimf='vim -o5 xx.file1 file2 file3 file4'
Just like what was written. Note that changes you make to your .bashrc
file don't get read automatically. Only when you login or resource the
file. Google about 'bash', 'bashrc', and 'bash alias' to learn more.
