   How do I open multiple files in separate tabs from command line? When I do dit foo bar baz, only foo is opened.

   I don't think I've ever implemented opening multiple files...

   It looks that tabs work more like recently used files, that is, if I quit dit and then open bar, I see bar and "old" foo. Is there a command to open a new file without quitting dit?

   No, not at this time. But quitting and reopening dit essentially preserves all state (cursor locations and undo history). That's why I never bothered to add "file manager" type features to it.

   Maybe some word in docs how it actually works would be helpful.

   They would indeed! But I don't really promote dit a lot. It's a project I use daily, but I maintain it very sparingly. Contributions are welcome, but I'm not intending to make it the "next big thing" or anything!
