The display scrolls so that the line
-a, --all
is at the top of the screen and the string "--a" is highlighted in
reverse video in that line and in the lines
-A, --almost-all
and
--author
Typing 'n' scrolls the display so that the "-A, --almost-all" line
is at the top.
Does searching for a string that doesn't include hyphens work?
E.g.,
/all
