I have a lot of source code distributed over a directory hierarchy

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.
Read :help netrw-starstarpat :
:Explore **//class foo
for example. You'll be presented with an netrw browser display in each
subdirectory
with matching files and the cursor on the first file that matches. Use
shift-up and shift-down
to move the cursor to previous or subsequent files with matches. Hit
the <cr> when your
cursor is on an "interesting" file to select and edit it.
