What good is grep if you want to search the build log on your screen that took an hour in the making? Should have thought of tee-ing it, well duh.

I do. Setting up log files for each and every command seems tedious. I would rather just cmd+f to search and have it work for everything, as it is a property of the terminal, rather than a specific command.

Of course. Why not? I can use the terminal's search facility to search its infinite scrollback buffer.

If I don't anticipate problems, or things are slower than I thought? Sure
