That is the only extra step, unless you mean that you have to run with -p to see the highlighted output. That takes a lot less time than you have invested in this so far. Actually, I've checked and you can run this with --ask instead or -p, so no extra steps involved. The only limitation is that you don't see the Y/n prompt at the end of the ask output. Create an alias to the command, or wrap it in a script that also runs the sed command first and the number of extra steps becomes exactly zero. -- Neil Bothwick The considered application of terror is also a form of communication.
