Open files in existing Gvim in multiple (new) tabs

Question

I have put some aliases in my .bashrc to open a group of project files in gvim, each in their own tab:

gvim -p 

        

Answer 1

There is a way:

n*.cpp|tab ba

or if you like to split:

n*.cpp|sba

If you wish to know more:

:help ba

and I don't know what is n , but it would not work without it.
