Thanks Luis - the perl option makes a lot of sense. I'll check out chainsaw
too.

Brendan,

You can use a fairly simple perl or awk script to convert your log files
to LF5 format (or Chainsaw, BTW).

You can also try Chainsaw, although I don't know what's the broadness of
it's XML file format.

    Hi,
       I'm impressed with the LogFactor5 application, but I find it a pity
that
    I effectively have to make my log file unreadable by humans in order to
make
    it readable by LF5.

    We have our own logging format (which uses %F and %L - which aren't read
by
    LF5) in my company and I would like to be able to keep that.

    Is there an opensource log file analyser out there that can adapt itself
to
    any format?

    Thanks,

    Brendan.
