shell.openTab
From ComputerCraft Wiki
 Function shell.openTab | |
| Added by ComputerCraft 1.6, runs program with as many specified arguments as are provided, in a new tab (and returns the ID number of that new tab). As access to the Multishell API is a requirement, this command is only available to advanced systems. Essentially takes all parameters passed to it and runs them as one line - for eg, shell.openTab("edit","myScript") is the same as shell.openTab("edit myScript"), and you can use whichever syntax happens to suit you. | |
| Syntax | shell.openTab(string program [, string args1, string args2, ...]) |
| Returns | number newTabID |

 Example | |
| Runs the program "falling" in a new tab, and switches to it with shell.switchTab(): | |
| Code |
shell.switchTab( shell.openTab("falling") )
