percol adds flavor of interactive selection to the traditional pipe concept on UNIX.

What’s this

optimized

percol is an interactive grep tool in your terminal. percol

  1. receives input lines from stdin or a file,
  2. lists up the input lines,
  3. waits for your input that filter/select the line(s),
  4. and finally outputs the selected line(s) to stdout.

Since percol just filters the input and output the result to stdout, it can be used in command-chains with | in your shell (UNIX philosophy!).
