I keep thinking about that too.  One idea would be to specify a range of
lines to search in, so that one could use the results of the previous search
to start teh next one.

Another would be to output a list of ALL search-matches.

There are a few ways of doing it but none of them are very optimal, and it seems like something that would be much easier and more efficient if it were implemented with code.
