Search patterns with quotes are incorrectly shellescape()'d
Opened this issue · 3 comments
A quoted search expression, e.g. :Ack "Error code"
, fails as follows:
|| [Search results for '"Error']
zsh|1| unmatched "
Notice it is searching for "Error
instead of "Error code"
.
Maybe use <arg>
? I believe that handles shell quoting in the normal manner.
May want to check how ack.vim is able to handle quoted arguments correctly.
Opened PR #10 to fix this issue.
FYI: Same problem, using ag/(f)grep to find
'foobar = foo(bar)'
yields:
1 || [Search results for ''\''foobar'] 2 || /bin/bash: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token
('
3 || /bin/bash: -c: line 0: ag --vimgrep -riF ''\''foobar' = foo(bar)' *' 4 || [Search command exited with status 1]
