+ *cfilter-plugin*
+If you have too many matching messages, you can use the cfilter plugin to
+reduce the number of entries. Load the plugin with: >
+ packadd cfilter
+
+Then you can use these command: >
+ :Cfilter[!] {pat}
+ :Lfilter[!] {pat}
+
+:Cfilter creates a new quickfix list from entries matching {pat} in the
+current quickfix list. Both the file name and the text of the entries are
+matched against {pat}. If ! is supplied, then entries not matching {pat} are
+used.
+
+:Lfilter does the same as :Cfilter but operates on the current location list.
