You could try PG or LESS for that. In particular less has a very flexible search function and there should be DJGPP ports of LESS so you can use it in DOS with very big files :-). LESS Examples: /warn|error.* searches for warn or error and highlights the word warn and everything from the word error to the end of the line / repeats the previous search ? repeats the search backwards g and G jump to the beginning or end of the file, q exits.
