I would like to call :make from Vim and view the errors in the quickfix window, but also have the output saved for later use. Is there a way to do this?
I though maybe 'makeef' would allow me to do this, except that :help :make says that the errorfile is deleted (item 8 in the described sequence). I'm thinking about making a QuickFixCmdPost autocmd that will take the file name in makeef and make a copy of it, but I didn't see any obvious file copy utility in the vimscript functions. I could use a shell command, of course...but I wanted to make sure there wasn't a more elegant solution. Also, I do a lot of my building on a system with Vim 6.1.5...so the QuickFixCmdPost autocmd isn't an option there. For now, I could just :w the quickfix window, but that's already been parsed using the errorformat and isn't all that useful. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
