Hi,

do you know any option where I can hide all results and see just the
files where we have the found lines?

Like a collapse all function in the grep buffer.

Wild guess and assumption ....you might occur buffer to do
that...provided you can.

I am not aware of ever using that kind of stuff...but as per your
lines states occur buffer shows result in a different format .So,
there might be a possibility to teach it to display files then words.

Again, I am not expert ,strong hunch. Also ,I don't know whether any
predefined facility readily avaialble.

you can use `consult-focus-lines` with the file extension as a filter.

It's not especially slick, but `grep -l <pattern> *.<ext>` for
instance will give you the list.  Then `find-file-at-point` (`M-x
ffap`) would open them.

You can type `TAB` on file names to show/hide file matches or `S-TAB`
for all outlines while using xref and such customization:

    (add-hook 'xref-after-update-hook
              (lambda ()
                (setq-local outline-regexp (if (eq xref-file-name-
display 'abs)
                                               "/" "[^ 0-9]")
                            outline-minor-mode-highlight nil
                            outline-default-state 1)
                (outline-minor-mode +1)))

Thank you, it seems it is a good direction but I need to find out
which buffer what consult use ...
