§ Vim Cheat Sheet

§ Using :grep and friends

:grep 

• This will populate the error window.
• Open the error window with :copen.
• Thanks to vim-unimpaired, going next/previous is as easy as [q and ]q( q for quickfix).
• To open quickfix ist, use :copen. To close, use :cclose. To go next/prev, it's :cn and :cp.
• Can create stupid mapping: nnoremap / :grep %, which switches / based search to always become grep based search.

• \: match word starting and ending.
