Subject: Cool "zman" function for reading zshall manual page
Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2016 18:16:33 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAKc7PVDi7W+4nY8J0Tb1MNwWyasu31cphaRRUr16VeC_kczLDg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
zman() { PAGER="less -g -s '+/^ "$1"'" man zshall; }
The thing is it has those spaces counted after ^ – zman "read" is 4
"n" hits in less, instead of 10 when doing "/^ *read" search. I
wouldn't share this, but it works also for those always hard to find
flags, if one will invoke as:
zman "f "
for "f" flags, modifiers, etc.
Origin is http://chneukirchen.org/blog/category/zsh.html
Best regards,
