How can Vim be setup so that all new files edited will open in their
own tab?

I know I can open multiple files from the command line, each in their
own tab with:

     $ vim -p aaa.txt bbb.txt ccc.txt

And if I have multiple files open in buffers I can put them each into
a tab with:

    :tab ball

What is desired is that every time a new file is opened (after the
initial one) that it automatically opens in a tab.
As if ":tab ball" is done after every file open. Is this possible?

Just use :tab when you're opening your files. So you :tabe instead of :e
(or :tab e), or move to the next file in the arg list with :tab n etc.,
etc..

You can also move a window (if you have multiple open at once) to its
own tab page by doing CTRL-W T (capital T).

:help :tab
:help :tabe
:help CTRL-W_T

Is that what you're after, or are you opening your files differently or
something? There are other possibilities....

Ben.
