I don't know what you exactly need (I don't (yet?) use project), so I can't elaborate further or provide benchmarks alas.The same code is also used in the default implementation of xref-find-references, in case you ever tried it.Could you perhaps tell me what you need?We are discussing changes to xref.el, because project-find-regexp delegates a lot of its logic to it.Check out xref-matches-in-files and xref--convert-hits which it calls at the end.
Okay, thanks, what you need is clearer to me, I'll have a look.
What you're thinking of seems to require a Grep-specific version of xref--convert-hits logic, which in the end constructs specialized xref items with a new type of location (alternative to xref-file-location).
Yes, that's what I'm thinking of indeed, but it's not specific to "grep" because it would work the same way with ripgrep, ag and ack. But indeed it's specific to grep-like tools.
