pacur wrapper to mimic yaourts search feature
pac takes your arguments and just gives them to pacaur. Additionally it adds a few useful arguments and if none are given except a search pattern it mimics the search function of yaourt and gives you a list of results. Then you just type the package numbers you want to install instead of having to type the names.
Example of how the search function works:
