Sessions should do what you want. You can look at :help session for more
information, but this is basically what I do:
1. Open the files that you want, in tabs (I typically have three tabs with
source files, a tab with my todo.otl file, another with some init files and
another with my .vimrc).
2. Type :mksession ~/work_session.vim
The file work_session.vim now contains the state of vim as it is. You can now
quit that instance of vim, start up another and do
:source ~/work_session.vim
Or alternatively start vim with an argument:
Vim -S ~/work_session.vim
Presto, your "workspace" is there! If you want to add or remove files, just
create a new session file with mksession, or replace the existing one.
I generally always have my vim session open, but whenever I need to reboot (I'm
on Windows, so that is pretty often), I do a :mksession and then when I get
back I just :source the file and I'm back where I left off!
Hope that helps,
Max
