Re: how to call vim on files that are the results of a grep -l command in bash?

Another possibility is to tell Vim that the file to be read will be
found on stdin:

grep -l 'foo' | view -

One problem with this approach is that using "view" (because stdin is
essentially non-writable) will make ":new foobar" open the new file
read-only as if you had used :sview rather than :new. IIUC in order to
make the new file writable you will have to use ":setl noro" after
making it current.

Best regards,
Tony.
