A location list is a window-local quickfix list. You get one after some commands like :lvimgrep :lgrep :lhelpgrep :lmake etc. which create a location list instead of a quickfix list like the corresponding :vimgrep :grep :helpgrep :make etc. do. For more details see :help quickfix.txt Best regards, Tony. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
