This is what I do when I have to recursively search for a pattern in some directories:

```
:vimgrep 'some-pattern' app/views/**

```

and then, I have to type:

```
:copen 20

```

So I can finally see the list of files containing "some-pattern" in the quikfix window with 20 lines.

It perfectly fit my needs, but is there any way to chain those 2 commands, so every time I'm asking for a vimgrep, it "pipes" the results to the quickfix window has if I typed ":copen 20"?

As much as possible, I'd prefer to stick to standard stuff (any .vimrc based method?), and avoid using a plugin for finding in files.

I switched to Vim just a week ago, thank you for your help.
