vim search multiple files

Searching some pattern in multiple files is something that is required very often. There are multiple ways to do it, like grep, ack, find and so on so forth. But if your editor already has the capability to do that, then why leave your favourite vi and go to shell. I will point you to some scripts and some wiki pages on how to do this 🙂
