Search all text files in a directory for text
Hi, I have a lot of source code distributed over a directory hierarchy structure. I always need to find class declarations, instances where variables are set etc. Usually I just go to command line and run something like find . -name *.vr -print | xargs grep 'class foo' Isn't there an easier way to do this in vim? I can't use cscope since the source is not in C. Jerin -- http://jerinj.blogspot.com/ --

Re: Replace all on a line
maybe the 'gdefault' option is on. What does :verbose set gdefault? output? it doesn't output anything. Cursor just comes back to the file.

Copying from vim to a term
Hi, I have a vim window open with a file in a terminal. I wanted to copy some text to another terminal. FIrst problem is my select. I hit the Ctrl+V to go into visual mode on a line, then hitting the Shift key and moving up and down does not select the lines below or above it. So I select with my mouse. I usually just use my middle mouse button to paste elsewhere but it doesn't work for things I select/copy in vim. I tried the explicit Copy/Paste but it doesn't work. Do I need to add a setting to my .vimrc file? thanks Jerin -- http://jerinj.blogspot.com/ --
differences in regexp replace
Hi, I have the same version of vim installed on two different machines. The file I want to edit contains inputsignala; input signalb; I wanted to have just signala, signalb on a line so that the file looks like: signala signalb I used the regexp replace: :%s/input[\ ]\+/ /g It works on one of the systems but the other one gives me a Pattern not found error. Does anyone know whats causing this difference? Jerin -- http://jerinj.blogspot.com/ --

Syntax Highlighting problem
Hi, I use gvim as my default editor. My source files are in a non standard language whose syntax is similar to Verilog. When I open files from command line in independent gvim windows the syntax highlighting uses the verilog syntax which is what I want. The only thing is when I use the split command to split an existing gvim window between 2 files, the new file opened does not have the syntax highlighting or colour. Does anyone know why its not using the verilog syntax for the second file? Is there a way to add this file type so that gvim recognizes it? It works fine for Verilog/C++ source files. I wanted to use the split command instead of multiple gvim windows to reduce clutter on my desktop. Jerin
Shell support in Vim?
Hi, I was just wondering if adding shell support to vim is a feature thats being considered. It would be great to be able to run commands from vim instead of having to shift to terminal to do so. I've seen vim shell but its a separate plugin: http://www.wana.at/vimshell/ Jerin -- http://jerinj.blogspot.com/
