DESCRIPTION This plugin defines commands to search for tasks and TODO markers embedded in files, and populates the quickfix list with the resulting lines. Most IDEs offer such a view, too. HOW IT WORKS The :vimgrep command is used with a predefined pattern. Search targets for the current buffer, all arguments, listed buffers, windows in the current tab page or all tab pages can be used (leveraging the GrepHere.vim and GrepCommands.vim plugins). SEE ALSO - To move to individual tasks and TODO markers in the current buffer without   building and going through the quickfix list, you can use the companion   TaskMotions.vim plugin (vimscript #3990). RELATED WORKS - TaskList.vim (vimscript #2607) searches only the current file triggered by a   mapping, and displays in a scratch buffer. USAGE All commands search for case-sensitive occurrences of FIXME:, TODO:, and XXX: in the files. (This is customizable via g:GrepTasks_PatternTemplate). When the optional [{pattern}] is specified, only occurrences that contain the {pattern} after the marker keyword are included. :GrepHereTasks[!] [{pattern}]                         Search for tasks and TODOs in the current buffer and                         set the error list to the matches. :ArgGrepTasks[!] [{pattern}]                         Search for tasks and TODOs in all files from the                         argument-list and set the error list to the matches. :BufGrepTasks[!] [{pattern}]                         Search for tasks and TODOs in all listed buffers and                         set the error list to the matches. :WinGrepTasks[!] [{pattern}]                         Search for tasks and TODOs in all buffers visible in                         the current tab and set the error list to the matches. :TabGrepTasks[!] [{pattern}]                         Search for tasks and TODOs in all buffers visible in                         all tab pages and set the error list to the matches. :VimGrepTasks[!] [/{pattern}/] {file} ...                         Search for tasks and TODOs in the files {file} ... and                         set the error list to the matches.

install details

INSTALLATION This script is packaged as a vimball. If you have the "gunzip" decompressor in your PATH, simply edit the *.vmb.gz package in Vim; otherwise, decompress the archive first, e.g. using WinZip. Inside Vim, install by sourcing the vimball or via the :UseVimball command.     vim GrepTasks*.vmb.gz     :so % To uninstall, use the :RmVimball command. DEPENDENCIES - Requires Vim 7.0 or higher. - Requires the ingo-library.vim plugin (vimscript #4433), version 1.008 or   higher. - Requires the GrepCommands plugin (vimscript #4173). - Requires the GrepHere plugin (vimscript #4191). CONFIGURATION For a permanent configuration, put the following commands into your vimrc: Tasks and TODO markers are detected by a regular expression, which is built from a printf()-style template, into which the optional filter pattern is inserted at the %s keyword:     let g:GrepTasks_PatternTemplate = '\<TODO:\s\?.*%s' By default, the quickfix list is filled with all found tasks; the first found task isn't jumped to. You can adapt that by changing the :vimgrep flags:     let g:GrepTasks_GrepFlags = 'gj'
