LogReader is a GUI application for viewing and filtering text files. It works kind of like an interactive fusion between tail and grep.
Installation is simple:
- Copy the Logreader jar wherever you want.
- javaw -jar path/to/logreader.jar -f file1.txt file2.log
It's recommended to create an alias like this :
alias readlogs='javaw -jar path/to/logreader.jar -f'
You can now do readlog someFile.txt someOtherFile.log &
MANUAL.md Explains how things work.
Use the --help flag to see available options.
