Logtool is a command line program that will parse syslog (and syslog-
like) logfiles into a more palatable format. It will take anything
resembling a standard syslog file (this includes syslog-ng, and
probably most of the other variants out there), and crunch it into one
of the following formats for your viewing pleasure:
- ANSI (colorized for easy "at a glance" viewing)
- ASCII (for e-mail'ed reports, and term's that don't support color)
- CSV (for importing into your favorite spreadsheet/database)
- HTML (for generating web pages)
- RAW (for no good reason)
It can be configured to parse the data any one of several ways,
including stripping the host, and/or program fields, and modifying the
time display format of the log entry's.
