vim tab, open file under cursor

[kermit l'assureur]

hi,

With vim (both on mac and linux)

I would like to open a file which the path is under cursor in the
current buffer, directly in a new tab
In fact i would like something like ":tabe gf" but this doesn't work.
<ctrl-w><ctrl-f> works, it opens the file in a new window, but i
cannot find the way to do this with tabs.
Has vim a standard way to do this or should i do a macro (but how ?)

Thanks.

:h CTRL-W_gf

regards,
Christian

:tabe <cfile>

should work

so would CTRL-W gF
