This script is based fully on vimtip #688. It provides commands for manipulating vim's :grep command via grepprg and grepformat without loosing current settings. That is, all this package does is manipulate the settings of vim's grepprg and grepformat variables. Hopefully the package makes it possible to use multiple different progams in conjuctions with vim's built in grep command. There is very little magic in the script...but it is convenient.

The basic command is :QF which allows any registered quick-fix command to be executed. E.g. QF <-- finds the program corresponding to "id" in the table and executes it with the specified arguments "args" e.g. :QF grep foobar *.cpp <-- will grep all cpp files for foobar

Any number of grep like commands can be registered, and ad-hoc commands can be run also. Look at the bottom for the file for the complete list of commands. An look at the top of the file to work out how to register specific commands. Command registrations allows for less typing, nothing more.

QFlid <-- will search for pattern in the id-utils database e.g QFlid static <-- will find all lines with the word "static" using GNU id-utils

QFgrep <-- works just like the grep command e.g. :QFgrep static *.cpp <-- will find all lines matching "static" in the .cpp files of the current directory
