Hi Everyone.

I’m using emacs and ripgrep to find what I’m looking for in a folder. Ripgrep shows the result of what I’m looking beautifully. Thats great. Every time I open a result, ripgrep buffer disappears.

Does anyone know how to open a temp buffer to view result then I can close it and go back to rg result again, so I don’t have to type my search query.

Thanks.

Using M-x grep RET with ripgrep:

;; ripgrep as grep (setq grep-command "rg -nS --no-heading " grep-use-null-device nil)

Then M-g n or M-g p for the next/previous match. With (repeat-mode) consequent next/previous are just n and p.
