You can also run @kbd{M-s o} when an incremental search is active;

"Show all lines in the current buffer containing a match for REGEXP.

If a match spreads across multiple lines, all those lines are shown.

|

Each match is extended to include complete lines. Only non-overlapping
|
||||
matches are considered. (Note that extending matches to complete
|
||||
lines could cause some of the matches to overlap; if so, they will not
|
||||
be shown as separate matches.)
|

|

Each line is displayed with NLINES lines before and after, or -NLINES
|
||||
before if NLINES is negative.
|
||||
NLINES defaults to `list-matching-lines-default-context-lines'.
