:bn [buffer next] :bp [buffer previous]

:bn is mapped to backslash on my installation.

:b <tab> for a list of all open files where you can pick the one you want to switch to. Mapped to ",." on my machine.

vim might have its problems. But buffer switching isn't one, for me.

How could anyone use :bn and :bp? Its 4 keypresses!! :) Contrast with ctrl-tab.
