Name: mkconsole

Maintainers: nomaintainer
Description: application that displays logfiles on your desktop

Long Description: This is a little application that displays logfiles on your desktop. Really useful if you have to monitor servers or you just want to keep an eye on what's going on on your machine. In its standard configuration it displays entries from any number of logfiles interleaved in a single window. Have a look at some screenshots. MkConsole is smart enough to close and reopen files every now and then to deal with rotating files and it transparently works around stale NFS handles which often exist after your Mac wakes up from sleep and tries to read from a logfile mounted via NFS. If you don't mind hacking the user defaults (rather than using the preferences panel) you can also configure multiple windows with multiple logifiles each.

If you haven't already installed Darwin Ports, you can find easy instructions for doing so at the main Darwin Ports page.

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/mkconsole
%  sudo port install mkconsole

--->  Extracting mkconsole
--->  Configuring mkconsole
--->  Building mkconsole with target all

--->  Staging mkconsole into destroot

--->  Installing mkconsole
