Is it possible to grep the buffer? For instance if I execute a build process in my VxWorks shell, linux shell, etc, is there a rolling file that contains buffer (e.g. data while scrolling)/previous output?

Use tee command:



building_command | tee -a rolling.txt

  • Yes, I am aware of tee - however I forgot to tee my output and would rather not rebuild.

It is not possible to grep the buffer, but some terminal emulators have a function to search in the buffer.



In most terminal emulators you can select the text and then paste it into an editor and save it to a file, which you can grep.
