Thanks, I've tried this too, but the strange behavior is still there.
If a file in the quickfix window is already open in its own window and
I select it (in the quickfix window) then an empty window called "No
Name" will be created (split) but the cursor will correctly jump to
the already open file. I can't make vim not open the "No Name" window.
For reference, this is what I do to open the quickfix window:
" by pressing 's' on a word open the quickfix window maximized with
grepped files
map s :cclose <Bar> :execute "vimgrep /" . expand("<cword>") . "/j **"
<Bar> cw<CR><Esc><C-w>_
The last part of this "<Esc><C-w>_" is designed to maximize the
quickfix window once it's open, but that doesn't work either :) The
quickfix window opens, but not maximized.
And in ~/.vim/after/ftplugin/qf.vim I have
" by pressing 'enter' the matching filename should open in a maximized
new window
nnoremap <buffer> <CR> <C-w><CR><Esc><C-w>_
In this case "<Esc><C-w>_" has the desired effect and the matched file
open in a maximized window, and the only problem I have is the empty
"No Name" window.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Danie
