[Vim-latex-devel] new dir for bibliography?

[Mikolaj M. <mi...@wp...>]

Hello,

I have got request to make possible looking for bibliography in other
directory than directory of edited file.

The best solution is to use grep but it needs such combination:

		elseif exists("s:type") && s:type =~ 'cite'
			let grep_prg = &grepprg
			set grepprg=grep\ -Hrn\ --include='*.bib'\ $*\ /dev/null
			exe 'silent! grep! "@.*{'.s:prefix.'" '.s:search_directory 
			set grepprg=grep\ -Hrn\ --include='*.bbl'\ $*\ /dev/null
			exe 'silent! grepadd! "bibitem{'.s:prefix.'" '.s:search_directory
			set grepprg=grep\ -Hrn\ $*\ /dev/null
			exe 'silent! grepadd! "bibitem{'.s:prefix.'" %'
			let &grepprg = grep_prg
			call <SID>Tex_c_window_setup()

With changing value of &grepprg. Alas, I don't know how to make it
cross-platform. grep is easy to configure (GNU grep compatible grep tool
as requirement and variable in texrc) but what about /dev/null?
Without that lS doesn't work on terminal. Maybe something like that
(example line):

exe "set grepprg=".g:Tex_grepprg."\ -Hrn\ --include='*.bbl'\ $*".s:devnull

And at the beginning:
if has("unix") || has("mac_unix") || has("cygwin")
	let s:devnull = '\ /dev/null'
else
	let s:devnull = ''
endif

How such compbination would work on other than Linux systems?
