Quick Quickfix List Navigation

March 11, 2015 ยท View on GitHub

There are lots of commands that will load up Vim's quickfix list with results that you'll want to traverse. For instance, if you use Fugitive's :Ggrep, it'll load up the quickfix list with line by line occurrences of the search term.

You can go forwards and backwards through this list using :cnext and :cprevious. Though this gets a bit tedious to type over and over, especially for long lists of results.

You can quickly navigate forwards and backwards through these results with two bindings provided by vim-unimpaired. ]q is mapped to :cnext, for going forwards, and [q is mapped to :cprevious, for going backwards.
