"open file under cursor
map <C-O> :exe "below new ".expand("<cfile>")<CR>
map <C-S-O> :exe "new ".expand("<cfile>")<CR>

I put the above comand in ~/.vimrc. I expect that ctrl+shift+o open a
new window above the current one and ctrl+o open a new window below
the current one. However, both of them open a new window above the
current one. Would you please let me know how to fix the first command?
