Not familiar with vimgrep since I use grep or egrep<br />
egrep -l 'whatiamlookingfor' */*<br />
<br />
The report will be the filenames that match.<br />
<br />
From what I scanned, vimgrep goes through pre loaded within vim.

Hello experts, <br />
<br />
i've spent way toooo much time looking up on internet : how to save to a file the vimgrep result. <br />
i'm working on <br />
<br />
on vim i know we can use :[range lines]w filename.tosave<br />
this ^ is working smoothly. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
we can also use &nbsp;:vimgrep &quot;whatimlookingfor&quot; % | copen <br />
this ^ shows me a beautiful display with contains filename, char, colon.....the line<br />
this is what i'd like to save to a file: &quot;my_research.rs&quot;<br />
<br />
<br />
but i dont know what to suffix with the following command: <br />
here i'm looking in many files &nbsp; <br />
:vimgrep &quot;whatimlookingforinmanyfil<wbr />es&quot; **/* | copen &nbsp; &nbsp;[???????]<br />
<br />
my question: <br />
how can i save what i see with <br />
:vimgrep &quot;whatimlookingforinmanyfil<wbr />es&quot; **/* | copen &nbsp; &nbsp;<br />
<br />
<br />
thank you in advance ! <br />
this is something i'd really like to manage ;)
