This might help:  Try using "whos -all" then you will be in the "less" 
pager and can search.  Enter "-I [enter]" to turn off case sensitivity. 
Use "/" to begin a regex search.  I think that would have solved your 
problem in this case.  I don't know if there is a way to basically grep 
from the output of "whos -all".
