vim and the quickfix list: jump to a location, search and replace in multiple files, and other shenanigans

• ripgrep

  348 44,901 9.3 Rust

  ripgrep recursively searches directories for a regex pattern while respecting your gitignore

Cross-platform support. That's a problem with :grep, how does vim solve it? Well, in the same way :make does. We can configure the external command vim calls with the variable grepprg. Say that instead of using grep we want to use ripgrep, in order to do that we add this to our config.

• fzf.vim

  157 9,401 6.6 Vim Script

  fzf :heart: vim

The last external search tool I'll mention is fzf.vim. This is a plugin that provides an interface where we can execute an interactive search. I won't get into any details here. Just going to tell you something I found out long after I started using it.
