Features

• Sources: Win32 OutputDebugString (local and global), log files (tailed through truncation and rotation, DebugView++
  .dblog and Sysinternals .log formats), program output, standard input, UDP (with multicast and a sender filter),
  TCP, the Sysinternals DebugView agent, and log files on a web server over http(s)
• Drag and drop: drop a log file to open it, an executable or script to run it, or an http(s):// link to tail it
• http(s) sources: Range requests fetch only the new bytes; works through http, https and SOCKS proxies (e.g. an
  ssh -D tunnel), with proxy authentication (basic, digest, NTLM, Negotiate), the proxy settings of Windows, and
  suggestions for the SOCKS proxies found on this computer
• Views and filters: views as tabs, each with its own filters: include, exclude, highlight, token, stop, track, once,
  clear, beep and bookmark, as regular expressions (PCRE2) or plain text; find, bookmarks, process colors, clock or relative time
• Timeline: the lines of a view on a time axis, as spans from a begin line to an end line and as events, with rules
  in the filter dialog; dvtest generates test data for it
• Columns: show, hide and reorder them; double-click the separator in the header to fit a column to the visible lines
• Traffic indicator: an optional light and graph of the incoming lines in the toolbar
• Saving: the log, the view or the selection in DebugView++ .dblog format; views, filters and sources as a configuration file
• dvcli: capture and filter on the command line, write to the console and/or a .dblog file, quit on a message,
  exit when all sources have ended, send UDP test messages
• User manual: compiled into both programs (debugvision --help, Help > User Manual, dvcli --webhelp)

macOS and other Linux distributions: build from source, see the README.
