Grepper in Vimscript function does not execute subsequent cdo command
I am writing a simple function to search the word under cursor and replace it automatically, something along the lines of
function! Replace() abort
Grepper -cword -noprompt -noopen
silent execute "cdo s/" . expand("<cword>") . "/<replace>/g"
endfunction
however, I noticed that when using vim-grepper
and Grepper
as grep wrapper, the subsequent cdo
command is not executed, namely the quickfix windows opens up and no replacement is done. If instead I use the standard vimgrep <cword> %
with the above function all works as intended.
I suppose it may have to do with having to use <Plug>(GrepperOperator)
in a function rather than Grepper
as command, or am I making some other trivial mistake (for instance there are flags to directly execute cdo
commands after grepping)?
