Well you can use an external grep from within vim.
One advantage is that it's relatively fast and you
can use the quickfix window. An inconvenient is
that you can't use vim regex.

:h grep
:h grepprg

If you have vim 7, then you can use vimgrep.

:h vimgrep

If your project is large, you could also use an
indexing program like "glimpse". See

Hi,

I read the help. But I still don't see how to search in all the *.h
and *.cc in a certain directory. Do I have to rely on the external
command "find"?

Thanks,
Peng
