Compview is a Vim plugin that allows users to search for information in an interactive window.
I recently discovered the Vim plugin compview and I have to say, it has completely revolutionized the way I search for specific text within my files.
Upon installation, all you need to do is enter your search term and compview will generate a list of all matches within the file. The plugin will then display an interactive search window where you can easily browse through each matching line.
What's even better is that compview is incredibly intuitive. As you navigate through the search window, the original window will automatically update and highlight where the match is found within the file. This feature is so helpful when you need to quickly locate a specific line within a larger document.
In terms of requirements, you will need Vim in order to use compview. Installation is pretty straightforward; just make sure to read the section titled 'Options' and set up any necessary variables in your vimrc file.
Additionally, the latest release of the plugin includes an added feature where you can specify the position of the search window.
Overall, I highly recommend the compview plugin for anyone who frequently works with large files or needs to search for specific text within their code. It's a time-saver and has made my workflow so much more efficient.
