Just saw this recently: <a href="http://blog.libinpan.com/2009/07/less-is-better-than-tail/" rel="nofollow">http://blog.libinpan.com/2009/07/less-is-better-than-tail/</a> -- use <i>less +F</i> instead of <i>tail -f</i>
1) They used OpenSUSE Build Service for RPMs YES. Why don't they also use the service for DEB?<p>2) I prefer ncurse to any gui ever. So much fast to use and read.<p>3) VIM bindings for the most part and the short cuts look very well thought out<p>4) Marking and copying gives the same feeling as Ranger File Manager which I use all the time and when forced to use Windows it is the first thing I always miss.<p>Great job and look forward to adding this to my common work flow with my Linux boxes.
While not exactly the same as lnav, at Mobile Jazz we're building a remote logger for mobile devices (iOS only at this stage, support for Android, JS web apps and native desktop applications coming soon): <a href="http://bugfender.com/" rel="nofollow">http://bugfender.com/</a><p>We use Bugfender already for our own applications as well as for our clients, but we'd love to hear some unbiased feedback from other people whether or not this would be a useful product worth paying for. You can sign up here for a free beta account: <a href="https://app.bugfender.com/signup" rel="nofollow">https://app.bugfender.com/signup</a>
Strange, pressing the 'Escape'-key on that webpage sends me to <a href="https://timothy-stack.squarespace.com/config" rel="nofollow">https://timothy-stack.squarespace.com/config</a>
A quick try on ubuntu 12.04 64bit failed to compile(latest 0.7.2 release):<p>lnav-0.7.2/src/static-libs/libncurses.a(lib_mouse.o): In function `_nc_mouse_event':
(.text+0x61e): undefined reference to `Gpm_GetEvent'
lnav-0.7.2/src/static-libs/libncurses.a(lib_mouse.o): In function `enable_gpm_mouse':
(.text+0x78c): undefined reference to `Gpm_Close'<p>Then I did this to "fix" it:
./configure --disable-static
Been using multitail (<a href="http://www.vanheusden.com/multitail/" rel="nofollow">http://www.vanheusden.com/multitail/</a>) for a while now, this looks interesting. I'll put it on my radar.
I am on MacOSX and interested but spoiled by debian.<p>How do I come by the dependencies mentioned: libpcre, sqlite, ncurses, readline,zlib, bz2?
brew install doesn't know the formula if I brew install libpcre.
Sorry for being a noob.
