emacs: inverse search
- by Data
Is there a way to do a inverse search?
I have very big log file where a particular pattern fills up for few dozen pages
20100414 alpha beta
20100414 alpha beta
<few dozen pages>
20100414 alpha beta
20100414 gamma delta
20100414 gamma delta
<few dozen pages>
20100414 gamma delta
Problem is, I don't know what text would be after "alpha beta". It could be "gamma delta" or something else. So I would like to skip all the lines that contain "alpha beta".
