I am looking for a way to get
grep foo bar | less
on my screen, when I am already looking at
less bar
Ideally, this would be some kind of internal less command meaning
(only display lines matching 'regexp')
With the example above, I suppose I could write some kind of macro, opening
shell output, but it gets much more interesting when I am looking at
program | less
and I do not want to execute program again, and I also want to be able to go
back to un-grepped output without executing program again.
Is there a neat way of doing this ? For exemple, I saw that there is an
xless .deb; is this possible with xless (though I prefer staying in my
xterm, of course), or is there something I missed in the less man ?
TIA
