Search in buffers

Search in buffers

I'd like to search for an regexp in all buffers. The preferable output would
be *grep* style rather than interactive one by one match. That is, I want
something like "occur" for multiple or all open buffers. Is there one?

I think `O' in ibuffer does (almost) exactly this. It only operates on
buffers marked in ibuffer, and you can use `m' on the top line of the
ibuffer buffer to mark all buffers.
