Wow, I had never thought about that. I've run into issues with minified JavaScript files as well, but never really thought about how much it annoyed me. To "ignore" super-long lines, we can just use a Unix filter: ag --color --group <pattern> | cut -c -100 the --color and --group force ag to not change the output just because we're piping the output to something that isn't a tty. The cut command simply clamps all lines at 100 chars; feel free to change this length. This is pretty long, so we could write a wrapper function or something: agc() { ag --color --group $@ | cut -c -100 } Stick it in your zshrc and you're good to go.
