Thanks for the info.. I will be sure to use 'Reply to all'. With
regard to top vs. bottom posting, i'll have to dig through my gmail
settings... I image they support either way.
Thanks again

If you mean recursing into directories, see the ** wildcard. I don't remember
where in the help it's mentioned but that's what it means.
A few (untested) silly examples:
:vimgrep /\<if\>/g $VIMRUNTIME/**/*.vim
to find all "if" statements in all distributed Vim scripts.
vimgrep /\s/g /**/*
to find all spaces and tabs anywhere on your hard disk (the current drive on
Windows, _all_ currently mounted filesystems on Unix). This might, of course,
take quite a lot of time. Don't try it unless you're ready to go to bed and
see in the morrow whether Vim has finished searching!
Best regards,
Tony.
P.S.
1. Top-posting is frowned upon in the Vim lists.
2. Please don't use private mail unless you're straying off-topic. I suppose
you can educate yourself to use "Reply to All" (or "Reply to List" if your
mailer offers it) rather than "Reply to Sender", can't you?
