Thanks, my intuition is that something like that could be useful, but I
didn't have a concrete example. That one is perfect.

(If anybody tries the above, note that I needed to add "--ansi" for it
to look nice in fzf. But I don't usually use that program, so I imagine
there's a way to configure it to do that by default).
