Re: tabedit and closing

Does that require using the F12 key or does it somehow also work when just using :wq  ?

You can't redefine the :wq command since user commands have to start with a capital letter but you could certainly call the command Wq or WQ if you like, but since my command does *not* write the file automatically. To get that behavior I would rather use

:com Wq wq | tabprevious

The nnor is a mapping, not a command, so that in normal mode I can just type F12 + c (<F12>t was a typo for <F12>c) to execute the command above without going into ex mode first (the map does that for me!) If you want such a mapping at all you can assign it to any free key sequence. I would advise against mapping it to wq however since it is all too easy (at least for me!) to type wqq by mistake and thereby starting to record everything you type into the @q register.

However I have the whole set of :tab... commands mapped to F12 combos in my .vimrc because I use them all the time:

nnor <F12>n :tabnext<cr>

nnor <F12>p :tabprevious<cr>

nnor <F12>f :tabfirst<cr>

nnor <F12>l :tablast<cr>

nnor <F12>t :ls t<cr>

com Tc tabclose | tabprevious

nnor <F12>c :Tc<cr>

I have multiple tabs open using :tabedit

I'm in a tab other than the right most.

:tabedit  opens a new tab to the right of the current tab

:q closes that tab but also advances the current tab again to the right.

Is there a setting to instead advance the current tab to the left?

I'd prefer to return to the previous tab, where I had just run :tabedit

I have this in .vimrc:

:com Tc tabclose | tabprevious

nnor <F12>t :Tc<cr>

Works like a charm!
