Option for full text search across all help

[alecthomas]

Using the AWS CLI illustrates how useful that would be, as it's basically impossible to discover how to use it unless you already know exactly what you're looking for. Something like a --help[=<foo>] would be excellent.

Hi @alecthomas 👋
Is this issue still relevant? If so, my colleague @i-sevostyanov and I would love to implement it.

[alecthomas]

It is yeah, that would be appreciated thank you :)

[titusjaka]

Great 👍
But please don't expect it too soon 😅 It will take some time. I guess, a couple of weeks or so.

It's me again, this time with a piece of bad news. 🙄
My colleague and I have explored popular CLI frameworks in different languages. And we couldn't find the Full-Text search feature in any of them. It looks like not the most important feature, since grep and fzf do this job perfectly without customizing kong 🤓
Perhaps I will return to this task later, but for now, I would like to do #90.

Hehe, no problem, I don't know that it's really that big of a deal TBH :)

[alecthomas]

Thanks anyway!
