The more and less commands work just like the all command but they either add or subtract to the list of displayed lines.
You could execute
all "/*"
more "*/"
to find all beginning and ending lines of comments (or you could also execute all "/*" | "*/".
You could also execute
all "/*"
less "*/"
to find all beginning comment lines that are multiline comments.
Selective line editing (which is the feature of Kedit that these commands are taking advantage of) works by assigning a value, 0 - 254, to the line and displaying only those lines that match the display criteria.
So you could write a macro that assigns a line value based on its identation level. You could then execute the command "SET DISPLAY 4 *" to view all lines that are indented 4 or more levels. Much more powerful than any lame folding feature in other editors.
