This is an awesome function. :)
Maybe I misunderstood what were getting at though. Here is what I put
in my .vimrc:
command! -complete=file -nargs=+ ShellTab call s:RunTabShellCommand(<q-
args>)
function! s:RunTabShellCommand(cmdline)
tabnew
setlocal buftype=nofile bufhidden=wipe nobuflisted noswapfile nowrap
call setline(1,a:cmdline)
call setline(2,substitute(a:cmdline,'.','=','g'))
execute 'silent $read !'.escape(a:cmdline,'%#')
setlocal nomodifiable
1
endfunction
command! -nargs=+ Find call s:RunTabShellCommand('find . -iregex '.<q-
args>)
But this opens a new [Scratch] buffer with the search results in a new
tab.
I want a new tab opened containing not the search results, but the
files I was searching for. :) I.e. I want to say
:Find myF.*.txt
and have myFile.txt opened in a new tab.
