Hi mate,
I know only about half:
2) Yup, Ctrl+N to create new tab, and then Tab to switch. You have a
little status (number of tabs and selected tab) on top right.
3) probably, scout command is your friend. Check its syntax by typing
"help", then 'c' for commands. No idea if its possible to return results
in a new tab, but you *can* hide all unmatched files in the current tab.
4) This can be achieved by setting a proper linemode. To see all available
linemodes, type 'linemode', <space>, then keep pressing tab to cycle
through all available.
Note that the 'fileinfo' (the one you might need) is crashing on my
machine now when I tested it.
