@dharmik@linuxusers.in wasn't familiar with it, but i managed to do it using tmux, a terminal multiplexer. It required learning a lot of key combos, but it was a fun challenge.
ah, #tmux is completely different than using split. with tmux each and every window runs a different vim window whereas with split, it's the same process. tmux is mostly for terminal management. suppose, i want vim, shell, logs, all running altogether.
