Add show command and use that for list searches
...
Displaying a record pair for a hostname or IP address is likely a common
operation, and using the `show` name makes it clear what the primary
function of the command is. Since record pairs are very simple, the
easiest way to allow both hostname and ip address arguments is to use
grep, which also provides general search-like functionality. In order to
avoid doubling this functionality, use the `show` command in the `list`
command for search.

In remove, delete the link in place rather than blanking first
...
When using the pattern of blanking the lines first and then deleting
the blank lines, the program ends up deleting potentially intentional
blank lines. In order to avoid this, use a simple delete rather than the
blanking + blank line deleting pattern.
