Putting myself into the shoes of a naive reader, I have to wonder what
happens when there are multiple matching parts on the same line. I know
the answer from your commit message, but maybe that should be covered
here? Maybe:
Output only the matching part of the lines. If there are multiple
matching parts, each is output on a separate line.
