I *know* that I'm reinventing the wheel; but this time the wheel is more flash. With python *I* get more control plus as a script, it's more reusable than what I could accomplish with bash.
Jed has something called grep_mode which I haven't been using for a long time. And since Jed is my editor of choice, that's where I'll be looking for fancy personal solutions :)
hi peterbe
you're reinventing the wheel again.
if you want the editor, you can use grep from within emacs and then next-error / previous-error to automatically open the files and navigate.
an idea: if you're interested in controlling a running instance of emacs from an external program, you can send arbitrary lisp commands using emacsclient thru a socket, say (file-file "filename") (goto-line 67) (recenter). you could even write a GUI program, binding it with emacs in tihs way. if you're interested in fiddling with that, i have some prototype code that demonstrates how to do this.
cheers,
