Wow, I've been using vi for 30 years and I had never seen :sp/:vsp, :E, :earlier or :term (although you can do :sp with ^W s). I always feel like there's still a lot of "hidden" functionality in vim that I need to uncover one of these days.

:term is new with Vim 8 I believe.

The Vim author was against adding :term but their hand was forced by the success of neovim from what I understand.
