I like to have a ' tail -f /var/log/everything/current' running on a spare
terminal, but what would be *really* neat is if I had a program that would
re-colour the output so that messages of interest to me would stand out.
It'd be pretty easy to roll my own, all I want is something that I can define
certain colours for messages from certain programs, or some such.
Something like 'tail -f /var/log/everything/current | recolour.sh'
Does anyone know of any tools that already do this? I'm lazy, and it seems to
me that this kind of thing must have been done a million times in the past,
but a cursury search on Google turned up nothing.
Any thoughts, suggestions?
Thanks!
Tom
P.S. I'm using metalog, if that makes any difference (I understand the
logfile format is different depending on what logger you're using?)
