Long a nagging annoyance, I figured it's time to ask. I frequently will do a :vimgrep on a term under the cursor, but want the resulting navigation to open in a new window.
$ vim somefile.c :echo 'In my main code window' :new :echo 'I want my vimgrep results HERE' :vimgrep /pattern/ *.[ch] :copen Navigating to my desired entry in the quickfix list and hitting Enter on the desired line ends up navigating in my original "main code" window, not in the window I ":copen"ed. 1) how to I know which window the Enter will impact? Vim seems to have an uncanny ability to choose the one I *least* want to change. 2) how can I tell Vim which window I want the resulting quick-fix "Enter" navigation to go into?
