    <h2>Populate <code>:args</code> from a shell command</h2> <p>It's possible (on some operating systems<sup>1</sup>)) to supply the files for <code>:args</code> via a shell command.</p> <p>For example, if you have ack<sup>2</sup> installed,</p> <pre><code>:args `ack -l pattern` </code></pre> <p>will ask ack to return a list of files containing 'pattern' and put these on the argument list.</p> <p>Or with plain ol' grep i guess it'd be:</p> <pre><code>:args `grep -lr pattern .` </code></pre> <p><br/> You can then just use <code>:argdo</code> as described by the OP:</p> <pre><code>:argdo %s/pattern/replacement/gce </code></pre> <p><br/></p> <h2>Populate <code>:args</code> from the quickfix list</h2> <p>Also check out <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/5686810/2004045">nelstrom's answer</a> to a related question describing a simple user defined command that populates the arglist from the current quickfix list. This works great with many commands and plugins whose output ends up in the quickfix list (<code>:vimgrep</code>, <code>:Ack</code><sup>3</sup>, <code>:Ggrep</code><sup>4</sup>).</p> <p>The sequence to perform a project wide search could then be done with:</p> <pre><code>:vimgrep /pattern/ **/* :Qargs :argdo %s/findme/replacement/gc </code></pre> <p>where <code>:Qargs</code> is the call to the user defined command that populates the arglist from the quickfix list.</p> <p>You'll also find links in the <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/5686810/2004045">ensuing discussion</a> to simple plugins that get this workflow down to 2 or 3 commands.</p> <h2>Links</h2> <ol> <li><strong>:h {arglist}</strong> - vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/editing.html#{arglist}</li> <li><strong>ack</strong> - <a href="http://betterthangrep.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">betterthangrep.com/</a></li> <li><strong>ack.vim</strong> - <a href="http://github.com/mileszs/ack.vim" rel="nofollow noreferrer">github.com/mileszs/ack.vim</a></li> <li><strong>fugitive</strong> - <a href="http://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive" rel="nofollow noreferrer">github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive</a></li> </ol>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
