hi all,
     I have a question:how to search a keyword in all files in a current
dir(include the sub dirs) by vim? thanks for your reply:)
   Hi,

what you're looking for is grep/vimgrep, I think.

grep uses an external grep command, vimgrep is a built-in functionality of vim.

To search the current directory for all files containing String "aString":

:vimgrep /aString/ *

To do the same search including sub dirs:

:vimgrep /aString/ **/*

This uses the ** ("starstart)"-wildcard to match subdirectories.

For more information try
:help grep
:help vimgrep
:help starstar


Kind regards
   Wolfgang
