 == Description
 
-This plugin allows you to view your `trac.log` logfile without shell access to the server, just via the Web-UI Admin interface. You can select to only display messages from a specified log level (e.g. only warnings), optionally including higher levels. So if you select "Debug" and all higher levels, this means to display the entire log. Moreover, you may restrict the output to the latest N lines, and even filter for lines containing a specified string or even matching a regular expression.

-Be careful with large log files: use the tail-function to limit the output to the last few lines, because it would otherwise take a very long time to display.

  `autotail`:: Limit LogViewerPlugin to those many lines from the end of the file. Normally, 1000 lines will be enough, but if you want to show everything, simply set it to an empty value as shown below for `defaulttail`. Keep in mind that a large log file will take some time to display. So keep this value to something reasonable, and do the unusual full display on demand only.

 You find the ''Log Viewer'' on the ''Admin'' page in the ''General'' section (see [#Example below]). Having this page called, select the log level you wish to see the entries for, using the drop-down. Optionally, you may chose to display all "higher priority" as well, where "higher" means the entries on top of the one you selected.
 
-You now can further restrict the amount of lines displayed: The ''Tail'' input works similar to the `tail -f` command, only showing the last N lines. If you input nothing here, this restriction is skipped, but if you do, the following search will be limited to these lines. In the ''Search'' input box you can enter a term which must be found in a line to be displayed. You can also use regular expressions here, in which case you must check the corresponding button. If you additionally check the "not" button, that search will be inverted, ie only lines ''not'' containing/matching your search term will be shown.
