I have a tool which displays the last 1000 lines of a text file (typically
ioclog.txt). The list is refreshed every 2 seconds. The lines containing
ERROR|Error|error are colored in red, the lines containing
WARNING|Warning|warning are colored in yellow and the lines containing
"Starting IocInit" are colored in blue. A menu is used to filter the
messages with respect to a given string. It's probably not enough for what
you want, but I am ready for a few simple enhancements if needed. The
message file name can be given in argument of the command (errmsg <xxxx>) or
chosen with the file browser.

The prgram runs under RedHat. It requires the libraries used for Gnome (
Glib , Gdk, Gtk+, libgnome, pango ...). It is composed of a binary + a few
gif files.

Included is a tar file with the needed files.

Objet : Browsing the ioc error log file

I was wondering if anyone has found a free tool (or built one) that provides
helpful filtering, sorting, perusing, processing of the standard ioc error
log file ... i.e. a good noise filter.
