How to clear highlights in lnav

1

After highlight <regex>. I have no idea how to clear that highlight. With filter we could do a simple disable-filter <regex>

Unfortunately, there's no way to clear highlights at the moment, sorry. I've filed a github issue to add a command to do that. I don't actually use highlights in my day-to-day usage, so the feature is not fully fleshed out.

Assuming this isn't some sort of impersonator, this is as definitive as it gets. Timothy Stack is the main author of lnav

To clear highlight all you have to do is do an "empty" search.

If to start the highlight I did the following search: /[DEBUG]

So to disable it I would just search: /

That disables the highlight.
