+			Restrict the output of {command} to matches with {pat}.
+
+			{pat} is a Vim search pattern.  Instead of enclosing
+			it in / any non-ID character (see |'isident'|) can be
+			used, so long as it does not appear in {pat}.  Without
+			the enclosing character the pattern cannot include the
+			bar character.
+
+			The pattern is matched against the relevant part of
+			the output, not necessarily the whole line. Only some
+			commands support filtering, try it out to check if it
+			works.
+
+			Only normal messages are filtered, error messages are
+			not.

 :sil[ent][!] {command}	Execute {command} silently.  Normal messages will not
