Description Josiah Ritchie (flickerfly) 2004-06-07 17:30:05 UTC

http://packages.gentoo.org/ebuilds/?regex-markup-0.9.0 is a program that claims to be "A tool to color syslog files". That would be a nice touch to make browsing the log files even easier. Maybe a color coded by severity, or better, a bit more markup in the config file to allow for this to be entirely configurable with maybe just a field to to state a color that is preset with a name.

I don't know what's possible, but would like to see this feature integrated to make this great idea even better. I'm really looking forward to this making my reviews of log files a suddenly less mundane and time consuming task. Thanks for wasabi!

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:




Sorry about this not being in the wasabi area, but there doesn't seem to be one.
Feel free to move this as seems appropriate.
