Alternative to "TAIL for Win32"
Hello Guys and Gals.
I need to be able to read through SMTP logs and apply a filter to make tracing problems easier. At the moment I use Firefox's Find and Highlight features which work but mean scrolling a plenty as these logs can be several MB (doesn't sound a lot but they're plain text so they are HUUUGE!!!).
I'd like to be able to download the log, enter a filter as I can in Tail and it only show matching line. Finding software to do that is proving difficult and we're not willing to spend any money on it (after all, it might take longer to do manually, but no point spending £££ on it).
Tail would be good but the files seem to be too big and it only shows the tail of the file (no good). Sorry for babbling on, I hope that someone can come forward with some recommendations. Thank you.
