I have them set to not cook the data so I get raw text out, my question is 
this, Has anyone built an extractor or parser to deal with Windows output 
as raw/plaintext? And I ask this because here are plenty non-RAW data 
options, however I nee to use the Splunk UF which means I am stuck with RAW 
data as an input for Graylog. I was hoping to find a pre-built extractor 
for Windows data.I hope this clears up my question.
