If you are already inside vim, you can either manually run ":split
<file1>", ":split <file2>" .. OR
:bufdo split (Close those you do not want)
One nice tip here is that, once you place your buffers in vim to your
taste, you can run the command:
:mksession <session-file>
..to save those windows placement. Later run
:source <session-file>
..to restore the view. That is a huge time saver sometimes.

Either use:
$ vim -p <file1> <file2> ..
..or inside vime:
:tabe <file1>
:help tabedit
