I would like to know how to search particular text on the terminal. If I do cat
of log files, I would like to find certain words like job or summary so that I don't have to read through the entire log file.
I know there have been a similar post about this. The answer from that post is Ctrl + A + [ <text>
which doesn't seem to work for me. When I press that I get a message No bracket in top line (press Return)
or If I press those keys together I get the message ESC
.
It there a way to do this with PuTTY? Alternatively, is there a generic way to search for text in the output of commands?
konsole
supports this with ctrl+shift+f
