Do you mean to run grep on file or buffer while editing?

Or outside of editor?

Does occur also uses that built-in speedy search? Would it work with
your library? Now I am researching it and I see vlf-occur

I have tried using vlf-occur in this email and what happened seems to
be error:

- M-x vlf-occur
- Tried with word "has"
- found many "has" in vlf-occur
- I press RET on the line there
- I get asked "Chunk modified, are you sure?" I say yes.
- my email buffer is erased at that moment and cursor switches to erased buffer
- then to undo stuff I press undo

So that is bug. User should never get buffer erased.

I am interested to research the possibility of expanding large number
of database items into the file which would then be hyperlinked. Would
some mode like Org mode work with it? I would use Hyperbole or Org
links or goto-address-mode

The file would be one liner expansion of database entries.

By using quick vlf-occur (at this moment I just imagine it is quick,
but do not have a feeling) I would quickly locate some entries.

I would then click or activate the button to move to specific other
database entries or outside hyperlinks.

Provide the one line to understand it.

Side thought: I remember I was making website search engines back in
time with grep only. Each HTML file was converted to one line of text,
something like:

LOCATION:::TITLE:::KEYWORDS:::DESCRIPTION:::HERE COMES LONG LINE OF BODY

Then grep was used to quickly find results which are formatted on the
website page. And yet we can just find complex software for website
searching on Internet these days.
