Hi Team,

Can we have pattern search feature in Bat like we have in vim where we use :g/pattern to match the keyword and it list the all lines match to search pattern then we use vim jump feature to jump on the matched line.

bat uses less by default. To search for pattern, type /pattern<RET>. Then n and N to navigate down and up among the search results.

First thanks for prompt response. yes i am aware but i am looking something like :g/pattern where it list all the matched line of searched keyword. thought to check if this possible with bat tool

It doesn't seem like less supports that, unfortunately.

Okay got it. So means not possible

@ciscohack If you can find a pager that allows you to search with that syntax, you can make it work. I did a quick search and stumbled upon this, didn't get to try it though: https://github.com/rkitover/vimpager
