You won’t be able to use normal mode operations with working with more than 2
windows; you’ll have to use the command mode :diff* operations and you’ll have
to specify which buffer is the other window using 1) the buffer number, 2) a
pattern for the buffer name, or 3) enough of the buffer name to make it clear
to which buffer you are referring.
