'eadirection' isn't "hor", and one of them is higher than the
current or the new window).
- If [file] is given it will be edited in the new window. If it
- is not loaded in any buffer, it will be read. Else the new

mess up the window layout if this happens while making other
window layout changes.
+:[N]sp[lit] [++opt] [+cmd] {file} *:split_f*
+ Like |:split| but create a new window and start editing file
+ {file} in it.
+ This behaves almost like a ":split" first, and then an ":edit"
+ command, but the alternate file name in the original window is
+ set to {file}.
+ If [+cmd] is given, execute the command when the file has been
+ loaded |+cmd|.
+ Also see |++opt|.
+ Make new window N high (default is to use half the existing
+ height). Reduces the current window height to create room
+ (and others, if the 'equalalways' option is set).
