hi there,
i want to set the grep-find-command differently based on each file.
(basically i need to search from a certain directory based on where the
file is). what's the best way to do it? i tried to write a new function
like this:
(defun rails-search()
(interactive)
;; set grep-find-command based on value of root
(rails-core:with-root (root)
(setq grep-find-command (cons (concat "find " root " -name \"*.rb\" |
xargs -exec grep -i -n -s ") (+ 34 (length root))))
(grep-find)
)
)
when trying to run the new function, it gave me "wrong number of
arguments". i guess i need to pass arguments to grep-find. but how? i
wanted to grep-find to take the input for search string...
thanks.
