What is the difference between the two commands below?
more file-name
less file-name
more is a filter for paging through text one screenful at a time is said in man pages for more. Is there a way to page through text, but instead of getting to the next page, the procedure will get to the next occurance of a string supplied via a parameter? The first time it will display the first occurance of the string (at the top of the screen) let's say, STRING1. The next time I press the SPACE bar, the crt display will show the line of the next occurance of string STRING1, etc.
I'm trying to watch dmesg output in (initramfs) but command output has more lines than a screen. So I see only the end of dmesg output.
Busybox v1.21.1 has more command, but dmesg | more somehow doesn't work as expected (it shows complete output without possibility scroll).
Why it doesn't work and are there any other ways in initramfs to watch dmesg output?
