Message-ID: <5B5F096A.7030404@game-point.net> I'm trying to search my git log history for a particular term - "unobtrusive" - so I run this command: git log -S unobtrusive --oneline When I do this, this is displayed and I'm in an interactive less terminal or something: pdftotext version 4.00 Copyright 1996-2017 Glyph & Cog, LLC Usage: pdftotext [options] [] -f : first page to convert -l : last page to convert -layout : maintain original physical layout -simple : simple one-column page layout -table : similar to -layout, but optimized for tables -lineprinter : use strict fixed-pitch/height layout -raw : keep strings in content stream order -fixed : assume fixed-pitch (or tabular) text -linespacing : fixed line spacing for LinePrinter mode -clip : separate clipped text -nodiag : discard diagonal text -enc : output text encoding name -eol : output end-of-line convention (unix, dos, or mac) -nopgbrk : don't insert page breaks between pages -bom : insert a Unicode BOM at the start of the text file -opw : owner password (for encrypted files) -upw : user password (for encrypted files) -q : don't print any messages or errors -cfg : configuration file to use in place of .xpdfrc -v : print copyright and version info : When I hit the down arrow, it scrolls down, repeating this output infinitely until I hit 'q'. What is going on here?? -- Best regards, Jeremy Morton (Jez)
