vim-easygrep Add support for ripgrep

ripgrep is a superfast grep implemented in Rust. It would be nice to have it.

This looks like a great tool, thanks for suggesting it. I added initial support in this commit: 6a2225db8fcd5045b4c132c488863d257851632a

Not all options are yet implemented but I'm hoping to look into the rest soon. In the meantime basic support should work.

Thank you! rg is so much faster...

Some documentation for other users:

:GrepCommand to test

And enable permanently with:

let g:EasyGrepCommand='rg'

Any progress on this ? I haven't managed to get RG working following @dpc instructions

Ahh, the only problem is when trying to do a replace with special characters (e.g. (). ag has the same problem with this plug-in.

The problem is due to grep needing to escape different characters versus ag / rg
