File names with colons

[mb720]

Hi and thanks a lot for ag!

I use fzf with ag to open files in a text editor:

local file=$(ag --hidden --nonumbers --noheading . | fzf | cut -d ':' -f1)
if [ -n "$file" ]; then
  # Use the default editor if it's defined, otherwise Vim
  ${EDITOR:-vim} "$file"
fi

This works fine for most files, but breaks for files with colons in their names. Here's an example setup:

echo "test 1" > file_1 && echo "test 2" > file_2 && echo "Find me" > "file:with:colons"

Typing "Find" and hitting enter, cut turns "file:with:colons:Find me" into "file", which is not the file I intended to open.

I know about ag's --files-with-matches but I do want to see the matched lines in fzf.

Is there a way around this issue?
