Thanks ZyX and Bram for this. I'm helping to maintain the ack.vim, a plugin to use ack as grepprg. One option on the plugin is highlight the results after the search, to do that I am using something like that:
if g:ackhighlight setlocal hlsearch let @/ = searched_term let v:hlsearch = &hlsearch endif But the searched_term is being highlighted only on "current buffer", is not being highlighted in quickfix window, at least not until I press 'n'. Is this a waited behaviour?
