I opened a file in vi, but unfortunately while changing it the terminal crashed. Now when I Try to open the same file again in a new session it displays the following message



E325: ATTENTION
Found a swap file by the name ".searchRefineVertTabs.jsp.swp"
owned by: nextag dated: Tue Mar 5 03:30:12 2013
file name: ~nt/deploy/main/main.build.3616.BR_PS_1109.2239/..../searchRefineVertTabs.jsp
modified: YES

While opening file "searchRefineVertTabs.jsp"

NEWER than swap file!

(1) Another program may be editing the same file.
If this is the case, be careful not to end up with two
different instances of the same file when making changes.
Quit, or continue with caution.

(2) An edit session for this file crashed.
If this is the case, use ":recover" or "vim -r searchRefineVertTabs.jsp"
to recover the changes (see ":help recovery").
If you did this already, delete the swap file ".searchRefineVertTabs.jsp.swp"
to avoid this message.


I want to know how can i delete this .swp file. I couldn't find it on the path filepath/...../outpdir1`

During that alert you can press D . Or else have a look in your current directory in your local machine.



Edit:You can also search for the file with:



find | grep ".searchRefineVertTabs.jsp.swp"
