Trace flows by id

[behrad]

How can I use grep to find line's containing an specific flow id in my dataflo.ws log file? I was unable to use grep since flow ids are colored!

hi

usually, we using less -R for browsing log files

for grepping i suggest to pipe log files through http://www.commandlinefu.com/commands/view/3584/remove-color-codes-special-characters-with-sed and then grep

probably i need to write some sort of script to handle this
