+   - [vim-browse](https://st.suckless.org/patches/vim_browse/)
+      - the vim-browse patch offers the possibility to move through the terminal history-buffer,
+        search for strings using VIM-like motions, operations and quantifiers
+      - it overlays the screen with highlighted search results and displays the current operation
