[Mono-dev] Sort and Searching of lising assemblies via gacutil

[Kornél Pál]

I don't think there is a need for such functionality.

There are a lot of tools to deal with such filtering, particularly on Linux
(the OS you mentioned).

You can use grep for example:

Instead of gacutil -ls Firebird*:
gacutil -l | grep Firebird

The above will look for Firebird on the entire line of course but I don't
see any chance to have Firebird as a version, culture name or public key
token.

Instead of gacutil -lsi:
gacutil -l | grep -i
