Using Vim for Log analysis with the inbuilt VIM search functionality and hlsearch, I'd like to assign a different colour for each search result I get.
For e.g entries of my log would be.
- CHECKPOINT 1
- CHECKPOINT 2
- CHECKPOINT 3
- CHECKPOINT 4
- CHECKPOINT ..
- CHECKPOINT ..
- .....
- CHECKPOINT N
My requirement is to search all these checpoints, and have Checkpoint in a different colour. But visible at same time in the screen.
- CHECKPOINT 1 - Highlighted as orange
- CHECKPOINT 2 - Highlighted as Green
- CHECKPOINT 3 - Highlighted as Red and so on
- CHECKPOINT 4
- CHECKPOINT ..
- CHECKPOINT ..
- .....
- CHECKPOINT N
Do you know if it's possible to achieve this on vim?? or could you suggest some other tools that would be useful for this.
Thank you :)
used /CHECKPOINT to search for all checkpoints and hlsearch to highlight each match.
