Konsole has a facility to search the history through the "Edit - Find in History" menu option. Konsole seems to hold 1000 lines by default but this can be changed with "Settings - History". The above refers to Konsole 1.1 on kde3. Don't confuse with the command line history (using the up arrow). I have to admit that I have only just noticed this capability!

I haven't used Konsole in a while, but I think that generally using either <shitf>+up arrow, or <ctrl>+up arrow should scroll through whatever was put on screen. Also, doesn't konsole allow you to have a 'scrollbar' on the side? The only advantage that I can see of outputing to a text file is to make life easier when using grep to find a keyword. Hope this helps.On 10-Jun-2002 at 10:45:08 Ian P. Christian wrote:From: John HorneAn odd subject line I admit! Okay, using redhat 7.0 and KDE, I start up a shell/terminal (kconsole). Unzip and untar a package and run the configure program. No problem I'm sure most of us have done that :-) However, I want to 'search' the output displayed in kconsole from the configure program to try and find something (a word). I'm sure someone said it could be done from a long time ago, but I have no idea how. Anyone any ideas?I personally would do $ ./program > file.txt Then you can grep that file. Does that help?No. Here's the reply I just mailed someone else who suggested the same thing: Nope, that's not the question :-) It could be any program, I just happened to be running configure at the time. I want to search what is displayed on the screen. I *could* redirect it to a file, but it would be far easier to search the 'screen'. Saves faffing around with files and then deleting them, etc. The question is probably very generic - 'using X11 how can I search an xterm's output' may have been better. The fact I am using redhat/KDE and was running configure is not important.
