I am using the following to search all buffers for "foo".
b1|bufdo exec search("foo" , flags)
This stops at the last match. How do I stop at the first match?
thanx
The following works, I think, but it also saves modified buffer. It won't
search [No Name] buffers. It may fail if you have named buffers not
corresponding to a file, like directory-browsing buffers or options-window
buffers. It might be more robust with argdo instead of bufdo.
If you can express the names of the files you want to search as a
space-separated list of file names (possibly with wildcards), the first two
lines below are not necessary.
:let buflist = ""
:bufdo let buflist .= " " . expand("%:p") | silent! update
:exe "vimgrep /pattern/g" buflist
Best regards,
