I put the following in my vimrc:
command! -nargs=* -bang -complete=custom,<SID>PathComplete FindInPath
\ :find<bang> <args>
function! s:PathComplete(ArgLead, CmdLine, CursorPos)
return UserFileComplete(a:ArgLead, a:CmdLine, a:CursorPos, 1, &path)
endfunction
You need to set 'path' appropriately for this to work. The
UserFileComplete() is a function from genutils.vim, so you need that
plugin, or copy the relevant code from it into your vimrc.
