Is it possible to detach the current tab in a gvim session into a
separate gvim window? Something akin to what firefox can do with tabs?
Once the tab is separated, can I dock it back into the original gvim
window session?
Firefox manages multiple X windows by one instance, and it was originally developed for graphical environment. Gvim has one process (and one instance) per one X window, doing no management of its windows. Vim originally developed for terminals and many GUI features are missing simply because they are not possible in terminal (though still there are such features, there are not much).
I would though ask why do you need this functionality in first place. I never had enough tabs open to want detaching, perhaps you are misusing this feature.
thanks
