Why doesn't it come close?
The only advantage I see with the separate window is keyboard support for the results, and probably easier to setup the capture stuff, but for that I could add a bash function or similar, that one would pipe the output through.
That's exactly it, it seems purpose designed for debugging, all the extra fields for specifying line number, file name and so on, I think its very clever, getting the same result in the html option is a lot more effort, plus there's the keyboard navigation thing. I think its one of your best inventions, is there any harm in leaving it in?
