# Grepping Through The Vim Help Files Trying to look up the help file for a Vim feature, but you cannot quite remember the right keyword? Use `:helpgrep`. With `:helpgrep`, you can search across all of the Vim help files for not just the specific keywords, but any pattern of text. For instance, if you want to find where `substitution` is mentioned in the help files, try: ``` :helpgrep substitution ``` It makes a list of all occurrences in the quick fix window and then opens up a split with the cursor on the line of the first occurrence. You can then hit `:copen` to see the rest of the entries. See `:h helpgrep` for more details.
