Using the prompt

Use :Grepper
to fire up a prompt.
-
CR: Start searching using the current query.
-
Esc: Close the prompt without searching. Using Ctrl+c works as well.
-
Tab: Cycle through the list of available grep tools, even if you already entered your query. You can also change that key. If you use a mapping for
:Grepper
, you can even use the same keys for them:nnoremap <leader>g :Grepper<cr> let g:grepper = { 'next_tool': '<leader>g' }
After remapping, Tab does a simple file completion instead.
-
Ctrl+f: Open the command-line window. This is a Vim feature. See
:h cmdline-window
. It gives you a list of recent searches, putting you on an empty line. Use Ctrl+c to quit the cmdline window or navigate to another line and use CR to use it as query in the prompt.
