Firefox works, AFAICR. 

Another problem will come with CSM in v17: nice new format but no anchors…

Opening a verify log

[Robert McKeever via 4D_Tech]

4D v16.3, Mac OS 10.11.6.

I was trying to create a form in V16 that exists in V15. Went to add a plug-in 
area and it crashed. So, I opened again, and copied the plug-in area from a 
different existing form.

Then I ran a structure verify. There are anomalies. This is generally bad news. 
So, I pressed the open log file button, and Safari opened and showed the file 
name in the header, but a totally blank page. Log file is 3mb. 

So, after trying Chrome, I opened the log file with BBEdit. It is a 62,447 line 
file. Looking for warnings, I see 863 lines complaining about depreciated 
picture formats (PICT). Those I can deal with over time. It turns out that the 
nice list heading has an old pict as the shaded grey background.

But, what can I use to see the log files without using BBEdit? Even when 
verifying the data file, its log file opens blank in a browser as well.
