  • Issues with my plugin and backslash `\`
    1 project | /r/neovim | 4 Oct 2022
    I have this plugin, vim-bettergrep can be found here. And have an issue with it that I haven't been able to fix for a long time. I don't like the way it handles backslashes. Currently, in single quotes, you'll have to input four backslashes \\\\w to use a regex escape character. This isn't ideal as, firstly, it doesn't behave like regular :grep and secondly is a pain to write. The offending code is in the call expand() portion of the code.
