logtool-1.0.2.tar.gz

Logtool is a syslog file parser, report generator, and monitoring utility. It takes syslog (and syslog compatible) logfiles as input from stdin, and depending on command line switches and/or config file settings, will parse and filter out unwanted messages from the logfile accordingly, and generate output in ANSI color, formatted ASCII, CSV (for spreadsheets), or HTML format. It is very handy for use in automated nightly reports, and online monitoring of logfile activity. It comes with some simple example scripts and documentation.
